Clothes, pajamas, house coats, chest of money for the Howells.<BR/><BR/>That's great television.<BR/><BR/>I know diddly-squat about classical music or opera, so I couldn't have told you where the music was from with a gun to my head.<BR/><BR/>Great find!JAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04272374108524693575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-9109436483118475252007-03-16T20:45:00.000-08:002007-03-16T20:45:00.000-08:00I've never gotten to play Carmen, which is a bit w...I've never gotten to play Carmen, which is a bit weird.
