Like carbon steel woks, cast iron cooking pieces require “seasoning.” To many this is a mysterious or overly time-consuming process.

Chicago – The Musical (1996 Broadway Revival Cast) $6.45 “Chicago’s plot was cynical and satirical in 1975, but today feels like a documentary.” So says Walter Bobbie, the director responsible for this revival of the Kander, Ebb, and Fosse “musical vaudeville,” which began as a minimalist concert staging for New York City Center’s Encore! series before moving on to Broadway, critical acclaim, and Tony Awards. Actually, it’d be hard to go wrong with any … |

Songs From The Capeman (1997 Concept Cast Album) $17.25 The diminutive one travels back to his Brooklyn youth for both the sound and story of his recent, ill-fated Broadway musical. Unlike the heavily produced Graceland and The Rhythm of the Saints, there’s a sweet simplicity to this delicate blend of doo-wop choirs, Latino rhythms, jazz horns and acoustic instrumentation.

Taming the rambunctious brood, Jane proceeds to make gentlemen of them so they can woo… |
