It's Sondheim time again -- the most wonderful time of the year here at SMSTS. This year, Shannon got her pick of themes, and she chose Sondheim's murder ballads. So, y'know, buckle up.
We're starting off with the opening of 1979's Sweeney Todd:
The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
appropriately named "Prelude/The Ballad of Sweeney Todd."
Attend the tale.
All clips are from the 1979 Original Broadway Cast Recording of Sweeney Todd featuring Len Cariou as Sweeney Todd and are used in accordance with the Fair Use Exemption for criticism and commentary.
Buy/stream the album on Amazon!
