Vintage Broadway Musical ANYTHING GOES Patti LuPone RCA Vinyl LP 1988 NEW Sealed

Description: Anything Goes - The New Broadway Cast Recording Brand new and sealed. A small notch is cut on the right side of the front of the cover - see photo. Record companies may use a cut-out method to mark copies of albums that have been sent out for promotional use, such as to DJs or radio stations. This prevents the albums from being returned to a store for a refund. One of the leaders in the trend of big splashy revivals in the late 1980s and early '90s, Lincoln Center's 1987 production of Anything Goes was the perfect evocation of the 1930s, from the period pit band to James McMullan's striking poster art to the large photograph of Cole Porter that smiled over the stage like an approving spirit. While the score earns its share of authenticity by resurrecting numerous songs from the original score, it also tosses in a few ringers such as "Friendship" and "It's De-Lovely." (Porter himself did not mind when people staging his shows borrowed songs from his other shows.) Then-rising star Howard McGillin sings sweet ballads and the ensemble numbers are excellent, but the show belongs to Patti LuPone, who in the role of Reno Sweeney grabs the baton from Ethel Merman and never lets go. Her "I Get a Kick Out of You" is one of the great performances of her generation, and the title tune and "Blow, Gabriel, Blow" make almost every other song sound like filler. LuPone was upset in the Tony race by Joanna Gleason, but the show did win for Best Revival. The booklet includes full lyrics, synopsis, production notes, and photos. --David Horiuchi Track Listings1Prelude - Edward Strauss2I Get a Kick Out of You - Patti LuPone3There's No Cure Like Travel / Bon Voyage - Michele Pigliavento4You're the Top - Patti LuPone5Easy to Love - Kathleen Mahony-Bennett6I Want to Row on the Crew / Sailor's Chantey - Steve Steiner7Friendship - Patti LuPone8It's De-Lovely - Kathleen Mahony-Bennett9Anything Goes - Patti LuPone10Entr'acte - Edward Strauss11Public Enemy Number One - Edward Strauss12Blow, Gabriel, Blow - Patti LuPone13Goodbye, Little Dream, Goodbye - Kathleen Mahony-Bennett14Be Like the Bluebird - Bill McCutcheon15All Through the Night - Kathleen Mahony-Bennett16The Gypsy in Me - Anthony Heald17Buddie, Beware - Linda Hart18I Get a Kick Out of You (Reprise) / Anything Goes (Reprise) - Patti LuPone
