This opulent revue, which originally starred Fannie Brice, Bob Hope, Eve Arden and Josephine Baker, is recorded here for the first time. Ira Gershwin and Vernon Duke's brilliant score has now been preserved, utilizing recently discovered and restored 1936 orchestrations. In addition to the standards "I Can't Get Started" and "Words Without Music", album highlights include the ballet music that accompanied George Balanchine's first work on Broadway. |
