Reviews

'This two-disc release comprises a cappella plus orchestral accompaniment from the South Jutland Symphony Orchestra. The King’s Singers bring their unique style to some of the most beloved hits from the golden era of songwriting, including a witty take on cole Porter’s Let’s Misbehave' (The Lady)
Composed for the 1936 MGM musical film Born to dance, starring James Stewart and Eleanor Powell, this song became a signature for Frank Sinatra, first appearing on his radio show in 1946. It became a firm favourite in his repertoire after Nelson Riddle penned his big-band swing version in the 1950s.

Dieser Song, den Porter 1936 für den Musikfilm Born to dance von MGM mit James Stewart und Eleanor Powell in den Hauptrollen komponierte, wurde charakteristisch für Frank Sinatra, der ihn in seiner Radioshow 1946 zum ersten Mal aufführte. Er wurde zum absoluten Favoriten in seinem Repertoire, nachdem Nelson Riddle seine Swingversion für Big Bands in den 1950ern verfasste.
