Stage Door Records unearths another lost bit of West End history with this first-ever release of music from composer-lyricist-librettist Kermit Goell's Pocahontas.  The 1963 show starring Anita Gillette and Terence Cooper was a swift 12-performance flop, prompting Decca Records to cancel its cast album recording sessions.  But the score was preserved on a demo sung by a company of Broadway vocalists as well as on the composer's piano demos.  Stage Door premieres those ultra-rare recordings on CD along with a newly-recorded interview with Anita Gillette!
