For sale is the original cast album of “Merrily We Roll Along'” with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Book by George Furth. Based on the play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart.
12” STEREO LP on RCA Red Seal Records (CBL1-4197). Half-speed mastering.

The show tells the story of how three friends' lives and friendship change over the course of 20 years; it focuses particularly on Franklin Shepard, a talented composer of musicals who, over those 20 years, abandons his friends and songwriting career to become a producer of Hollywood movies. Like the play on which it is based, the show's story moves in reverse chronology, beginning in 1976 at the friends' lowest moment and ending in 1957, at their youthful best. .
