  1. Teotihuacan---I've been there! Plus I've seen Raquel in person before...so this is some sort of cosmic convergence for me!

  4. Raquel Welch is just too fabulous! What a beauty! Diahann is easily the more accomplished vocalist and she is glamorous as always but her presentation is too patrician for "Hair". Raquel's setup is strange and scary, and she is marvelous to look at.

  5. Thombeau - Are you tweaking again?!?!

    Scooter - And a valet. Don't forget the valet.

    David Toms - You forget what an all-around entertainer she was. A bat-sh*t crazy entertainer, but an all-around one.

    Marc - Diahann's presentation is really odd, isn't it? One wonders if it was her sly slap in the face to the unwashed hippies who were, of course, the antithesis of Ms. Carroll's polished brand of savoir faire.
