Sorry, I misstated. Here's what Ted Chapin wrote about the situation in When Everything Was Possible:
Michael was never happy with "Uptown, Downtown," felt that because it came late, he never had the proper time to plan for its staging. It had been shoved at him at the last minute, and he asked for a new number. Judy Prince was said to be in favor of a new number as well. Steve was willing to oblige. |
