Scene/Song Matrix & YouTube Video Clips

Click on a song TITLE below to download & hear the rough Tascam DP01FX 8-track demo song recordings (in either wma or mp3 format). The songs were mixed using headphones so I suggest that's what you listen to them with.
I make no assurances as to the mix on anything else they're played on. Adjust EQ to taste! Download the read-only PDF script and play the songs at the appropriate point in the script to understand who sings what parts of the songs. I tried very hard to keep all the characters busy, almost every chararcter sings.

Lead music sheets were transcribed for the play from my recordings by Jim Snarski from the demo recordings.
Additional musical arrangements & instrumentation sheet music for the production were created by Pembroke Academys music teacher, Mike Blakeslee. NOTE:
I do not have sheet music for the play and cannot create any.I
I do have lyric sheets with guitar chord blocks. Feel free to add additional instrumentation & orchestration!

I tried to capture some of the wonderful innocence & memories of my youth with these songs and story. Watching tv shows like the Sid & Marty Kroft stuff, the Monkees, the Carol Burnett show, Gilligan's Island, Monty Python and some of my favorite movies from that time - The Point & The Phantom Tollbooth and of course, the Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis movies. I hope i succeeded, at least a bit... ah, the good old days!

These songs were written to be played by a single acoustic guitar during production with the exception of the FGRap tune (production ver.) which is a pre-recorded piece meant to be played through a PA system.

PLEASE NOTE!!!
The song LYRICS in the script supercede those of the song demos as the songs were written first!
Please reference the script for lyrical changes, notably 'Why Not Me', 'FGRap' & 'In Me'.
