I always preferred his version over Larry Kert's. I like Raul's but Dean's is the gold standard!

For me, Sondheim's greatest song, and the most deep musical expression of the man himself..

It is? I thought that track was a recording of him after he replaced Dean Jones on the OBC.

Well, the OLC is really just the OBC with Larry Kert's vocals dubbed over Dean Jones'
