40 years ago this week, "One Night In Bangkok" by #MurrayHead entered the #Top10 at 9. It peaked at 3 on 18 May 1985. I'd always assumed it was sung by #Taco, but I guess not. I've never seen "Chess", the musical, so I tracked down some of the other songs from it. Nothing I recognized, but they all sound like 80s musicals. Not surprising, I suppose, since they were written by #TimRice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgc_LRjlbTU #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
#OnThisDay in 1994, Alen Menken, Howard Ashman, and #TimRice's stage adaptation of Disney's animated musical "Beauty & the Beast" opens at Palace Theater (later transferring the Lunt-Fontanne), NYC; runs for 5,461 performances.
