This is a must-have for the Cole Porter enthusiat, especially when coupled with "You're The Top: Cole Porter in the 30's," it's companion set also put together by the Indiana Historical Society for Porter's centennial. There is a wide and respresentative range of Porter period selections and an excellent and informative book included which gives song backgrounds and featured artist's bio's. If you like Porter's music, then Ella Fitzgerald's, Sinatra's, or even Dionne Warwicke's Cole Porter CD's are for you. If you love Cole Porter music, as did Bobby Short, then this is certainly a CD set to add to your collection.
It's wonderful to hear these great Cole Porter songs performed, sometimes, in alternate versions. Ethel Merman singing a more complete version of "I've Still Got My Health" is worth the price of the whole set!
