Description / My Opinion

|
Amazon.com - Ordered 12/09/98 - Shipped 12/12/98 - Received 01/02/99 The booklet contains 8 B&W small photos of the performers and Cole Porter, and two medium B&W photos of the main performers, Thomas Allen and Diane Montague. There is also a funny two page photo of the original production. There's an interesting text from Rexton S. Bunnett, talking about Cole Porter, this particular show and giving a synopsis. I'm not particularly fond of this recording. It's well done, but the style doesn't fit me for the moment. I just can't get in it.
