Great musical

I first heard this musical when i was in college in 1980 and checked the LP out of the library. Later on , I got a cassette version of the soundtrack and listened to it so much I wore out the tape. It has always been one of my favorite musicals. the songs are so catchy, you want to sing along. Almost everyone in the original cast went on to fantastic careers. You can listen to the 1981 tv movie on YouTube.
