Tmdonahue, you've brought up this topic before, but why wouldn't ''Smokey Joe's Cafe'' automatically have been a Tony Musical contender?

A number of revues, going back to 1959's ''La Plume de Ma Tante,'' have been up for Best Musical.

Among them: ''Don't Bother Me, I Can't Cope'' (1973); ''Bubbling Brown Sugar'' (1976); ''Side by Side by Sondheim'' (1977), etc.

And ''Ain't Misbehavin' '' (1978) won Best Musical, beating out two other revues, ''Dancin' '' and ''Runaways.''
