REVIEW
New from STAGE DOOR RECORDS is an excellent selection of items, from a variety of sources, connected with Cole Porter’s “ANYTHING GOES”. These include some classic stage performances from Ethel Merman and Mary Martin; excerpts from the 1956 movie with Bing, Mitzi Gaynor and others – and four tracks from the original London cast of 1935 vintage including the version of ‘You’re The Top’ re-written for British audiences.
