Stage Door are pleased to reissue Hermione Gingold's Live at the Cafe de Paris CD as part of the Stage Door On Demand series. The long deleted album (first issued in 2008) has been newly remastered and is presented in a stylish Full Gloss Digipak. The reissue is capped at 100 units only, don't miss out!

Hermione Gingold is best known for her iconic performances in the films 'Gigi', 'The Music Man' and 'A Little Night Music' - however her career originated in London revues of the 30s and 40s. Her popular appearances in revue created a vast back catalogue of original witty and humorous songs which became part of Gingold's signature repertoire.

After finding success in the United States , Hermione returned to London in 1953 to perform at the renowned Cafe De Paris. During Gingold's cabaret season, her performance was recorded at the venue (without an audience), and preserved for posterity. Accompanied by Clay Ashdown at piano, Gingold's programme included many of the songs she'd originated in revue. This live performance remained unreleased until first issued in 2008.

To supplement the Cafe De Paris recording, Stage Door have included a generous selection of bonus tracks including two sides of a novelty single recorded in 1953 with Gilbert Harding and selections from Gingold's 1955 album La Gingold.
