The Wiz (1979)

In this recording, take a journey with me back through the origins of the Oz books, the first adaptations on stage & screen, the well-known 1939 version, and some fascinating aspects to the `70s soul version adapting the smash stage play. Along the way, we'll learn a lot about the author, L Frank Baum, his noteworthy mother-in-law, and as much interesting content as I could squeeze onto the page from my keyboard.
