Part two of our alphabetical “Songs of Cole Porter” series does pretty much what I hoped that it would, bouncing back and forth through his chronology to present the variety of his work.

This show moves freely between well-known, still popular numbers and a few lesser-known songs that have almost been forgotten, with an emphasis toward the latter.

Featured songs include;

At Long Last Love – Bobby Short

Be a Clown – Judy Garland and Gene Kelly

Begin the Beguine – Artie Shaw & His Orchestra 

Begin the Beguine – Tony Bennett

Blow, Gabriel, Blow – Ethel Merman

Bruch Up Your Shakespeare – Harry Clark and Jack Diamond

C’est Magnifique – Lilo and Peter Cookson

Ca, C’est L’amour – Tony Bennett

Come to the Supermarket in Old Peking – Barbra Streisand

Do I Love You? – Ella Fitzgerald

Don’t Fence Me In – Bing Crosby & The Andrews Sisters

Don’t Look at Me That Way – Irene Bordoni
