I'm sorry to hear about that one. My father loved her and her music and played it often. Grease is one of my favorite musicals and movies. I know all the words by heart. Another one who left us too soon. RIP. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

You might appreciate the history of Grease, the musical and how radically it changed from 1971 until the movie premiere in summer of 1978. In its original production in Chicago, Grease was a much raunchier show. The phrase "rock and roll" was originally African American urban slang for sexual intercourse, going as far back as the 1920s. In 1956 the mayor of Jersey City, banned all rock and roll within the city limits http://www.newlinetheatre.com/greasechapter.html |

Saw "Grease II" many times because HBO ran it all the time, probably because they got it on the cheap. I cannot see the point of musicals. Only one I like is "The Blues Brothers." The thing with them is the action keeps getting broken by the musical segments. Who remembers "Cop Rock" the cops show musical. I always wondered what they were thinking. That was not just a bottle show, it was created by the same people as "NYPD Blue." The President is a fink. |

You need to watch "Cannibal the musical". It is so bad it is hilarious. I think it was the first film of Trey Parker of Simpsons fame. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Are you sure? I thought she was still alive on life support. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |
