   FOLLOW THAT GIRL is one of Slade and Reynolds' most

   delightful works, the successor to their Salad Days, which

   it followed into the Vaudeville Theatre in the Spring of

   1960. A fantasy about the love between Victoria and Tom,

   a young playwright, it begins in the present day and

   reverts to the Victorian era when Tom's characters come to

   life. The score has an entrancing title song and many other

   attractive, typically Slade, melodies, not least 'Solitary

   Stranger'. The qualities of the music are well displayed by

   the splendid Michael Collins' orchestral selection which

   make one of the bonus tracks for this release (along with

   a foxtrot of the title song from Victor Sylvester!).

   Invaluable, too, is the recording the Bristol Old Vic

   Company made of some of the numbers from Slade and

   Reynold's next show, the Christmas entertainment

   HOORAY FOR DAISY!

   Here we have a bouquet of these simple, unaffected items.

  

   with:

   Susan Hampshire, Peter Gilmore, Marion Grimaldi,

   Patricia Routledge, James Cairncross, Newton Blick
