Following its Broadway debut in 1966, the Neil Simon/Cy Coleman/Dorothy Fields musical Sweet Charity made it to London in October 1967 in a production starring Juliet Prowse.  Two months later, Saga Records released its own recording of the Coleman/Fields score to coincide with the production's arrival at the Prince of Wales Theatre.  Now, Saga's studio cast recording starring West End mainstay Mary Preston as Charity is making its premiere on CD from Stage Door Records.  This is the only recording that features a cut verse from Charity's "You Should See Yourself," and Stage Door's reissue additionally premieres an expanded version of "Rich Man's Frug" with material cut from the original LP.  The CD has been remastered from the original tapes.
