undergone several variations. For this recording, with the exception of, the
often unused, Refrain 2 (the one that begins “If you ever loose your way,
come to May”) all the lyrics given in The Complete Lyrics Of Cole
Porter were used. In this recording, rather than use the
original opening line to Refrain 6 “If they hang you, pard, send a card”

Louise Gold has, fortunately, had quite a number of opportunities to delight audiences with her performances of Cole Porter songs. She appeared on stage in a number of Cole Porter musicals, in particular the quintet of shows he wrote for Ethel Merman, namely: Anything Goes, Red Hot & Blue, Du Barry Was A Lady (see: Du Barry Was A Lady (1993 Production) and Du Barry Was A Lady (2001 Production)), Panama Hattie, and, Something For The Boys,. In addition she has starred in a production of Kiss Me Kate, and sung his songs in Noel/Cole: Let’s Do It, and A Lost Musicals Occasion amongst other places. However, she has made all too few recordings of his work, the only albums of her singing Cole Porter are this Anything Goes recording and the cast album for Noel/Cole: Let’s Do It. - where incidentally she also recorded a very different version of Blow Gabriel Blow. However, Du Barry Was A Lady (2001 Production) - which includes a slightly different (in fact the original) version of Friendship was broadcast on BBC Radio 3. In addition she also sang a parodies of I Get A Kick Out Of You, as I Get A Kick Out Of U, and, Anything Goes as Anyone’s Nose on Sesame Street.
Before this recording
became widely available as an album in it’s own right, several tracks from it
turned up in other places, these include: I Get A Kick Out Of You
on The Best of Broadway Musicals,
The Greatest Musicals
of the 20th Century, and, The
Great Musicals – Glamour And Majesty; Blow Gabriel Blow on Encore The Very Best From The
Musicals , and, You’re The Top on Great Duets From The Musicals, and
The Great Musicals – Laughter And Tears.
Many of the tracks: I Get A Kick Out Of You, You’re The Top,
Easy To Love, Friendship, It’s Delovely,
Anything Goes, Public Enemy Number One, Blow
Gabriel Blow, All Through The Night, and, Buddie
Beware, also turn up on the Readers Digest album Cole Porter - Night And Day. Part of I
Get A Kick Out Of You also managed to find its way onto The History Of The Musical. Since
then Anything Goes has
appeared on Simply Musicals, The Great Musicals - Wonderful Tales, Magic Of The Musicals, and, The Best Of The Musicals.
It may be
interesting to note, there is one line from the finale track of this album,
which Louise Gold mentioned on Tim McArthur Interview.
Review (of CD: (Music
Theatre Hour) CDTEH6011 )
by Emma Shane (© January 2004)
Well what can I
say? This CD is The Top. I first read about this album, some eight and a
half years ago (in a theatre programme), I thought, that with such a delovely
singer of Cole Porter’s songs in the lead, it ought to be worth having,
which it jolly well is. In fact I think it is the very best recording that Louise
Gold has featured on to date. If you like: Louise Gold, or, Cole
Porter, or, Sesame Street’s parodies of Ethel Merman,
or the musical Anything Goes, then this is one recording you
really have to hear.
Until now,
except for those of us lucky enough to have The Musicals Collection’s CD
of Anything Goes, the best widely available recording of Anything
Goes has been the marvellous EMI Classics version, conducted by John
McGlinn, with Kim Criswell as Reno Sweeney. Now that is a very fine
recording, not least because it stars Kim Criswell, the only other
singer I have heard who can sing those Merman roles anywhere near as well as Louise
Gold can. It also set a standard for both quality, and a historical capture
of the original show, by which any other recordings, or productions, of Anything
Goes can be judged. However, while that recording is a beautiful one,
some people do find it a little dull, a tad boring, a bit staid. And that’s
where this “new” JAY/TER recording scores a smash hit. It is
quite simply the most exciting, vibrant and stimulating recording of this show,
and yet, with the National Symphony Orchestra under John Owen Edwards’s
marvellous direction, it is performed to a high standard, but with an extra
zing of lively enthusiasm. Although it uses Michael Gibson’s 1988
Broadway revival orchestrations (also seen in London in 1989 and 1990), and the
‘book’ from that production (meaning that that there are songs included that
were not in the original production, and in addition other songs have been
reallocated to different characters), it non-the-less captures the vibrant
fresh spirit that must have existed when this show really was new. However, in
sharp contrast to the EMI Classics’ recording, here the singers are a
little freer to bring their own interpretations to their parts on this lively
stimulating recording.
Giving singers
such freedom has its risks, and there are occasions when it’s possible a
staider approach could have worked better, indeed a few occasions when perhaps
the EMI recording did a better job, namely: Be Like The Blue Bird, The
Gypsy In Me, and, Buddie Beware, but then it takes time
to get used to a new recording, especially if the performances are a little
individual. That is very likely to be the case with Be Like The Blue Bird.
Jack Gilford sang it beautifully on the EMI recording. Matt Zimmerman’s
version is not as beautiful, but it does have an extra degree of conviction,
and when he sings the line “he knows that his efforts are perfectly lousy”
one has to wonder if perhaps Matt Zimmerman would have been perfectly
capable of singing it more sweetly, but is deliberately doing it this way
because he feels it suits the character better, the same reasoning might also
apply to Louise Gold’s performance of I Get A Kick Out Of You
(but more on that later). The Gypsy In Me suffers chiefly from the fact
that Simon Green did it just a bit too well when he sang it in the Grange
Park Opera production, making it difficult for anyone else to inhabit the
part, and Paul Manuel is just not Simon Green. It is probably not
helped by the fact that the song was originally sung in the show by another
character, namely Hope and sung very well on the EMI Classics album by
the wonderful Frederica Von Stade in that role. Buddie Beware
suffers from a similar problem, and in this case compounded by the fact that
the character it was originally written for was in fact Reno Sweeney, and Kim
Criswell sang it exceedingly well as such on the EMI Classics album.
Songs written for Ethel Merman have a tendency, however good they are,
to not sound quite the same when they’re done by anyone else, especially with
such a top Merman-esque singer as Louise Gold around. It’s
Delovely, though beautifully sung by Gregg Edelman and Katrina
Murphy also suffers from being originally a Merman song, in Red Hot
& Blue. The other interpolated song, Friendship is
the one alteration that doesn’t suffer in the least, because it is still being
sung by the same sort of performers who inhabited it in Du Barry Was A
Lady.
One of the key
benefits of studio cast albums, is the opportunity to provide to include little
known songs that got dropped from their shows. This album is no exception,
including the full version There’s No Cure Like Travel, instead
of just the Bon Voyage except. The work of specific individuals,
especially Gareth Snook, stands out on this recording in a way that it
doesn’t usually. Another piece particularly worth mentioning is Goodbye
Little Dream Goodbye, inhabited by Katrina Murphy, a Cole
Porter song I had not come across before. Meanwhile Easy To Love,
All Through The Night, There Will Always Be A Lady Fair,
and, Public Enemy Number One, are all handled well, this is a
pretty high standard of performance throughout. The high quality of the
performances not only applies to the singers but also to the musicians of the NSO.
John Owen Edwards is a masterful conductor, at least when he is working
with the NSO (he once recorded Anything Goes with a pit
orchestra - Elaine Paige’s 1989
It’s a great
album all round, especially with John Owen Edwards conducting, but what
gives this recording of Anything Goes that extra special sparkle,
is Louise Gold in the role of Reno Sweeney; and it is her numbers that
really and truly stand out on this recording: Firstly, I Get A Kick Out
Of You, while this isn’t necessarily the sweetest version of this song,
that honour surely goes to Kim Criswell, it’s worth noting that while Ms
Gold would have been capable of doing it just as sweetly, she has instead tried
to capture the vocal effect it’s original inhabitor, and she is one of the very
few singers who could possibly pull this parody off. However, the take used on
this album is better (than The Musicals Collection one), simply because
it’s a bit more Louise and a bit less parody, but still with a strong hint of
just who this song was written for. You’re
The Top sums up this album perfectly. Convincing, and a high standard
of performance, but vibrantly playful, and absolutely not boring. This is the
kind of lengthy list song that could easily be dull, but with Louise Gold
around to sing it, and John Owen Edwards to conduct it, it’s anything
but. Gregg Edelman sings it quite straight, though with some enthusiasm,
however Louise Gold is like a zany Muppet with her expert
handling of the comical lyrics. She knows just when to change her accent, or
vocal style to liven the song up, and just like The Muppets, she makes it work,
her joyous irrepressibility actually enhances the song., bringing out its
marvellously inventive lyrics. Friendship finds the glorious Gold
just as playful, and on this lovely interpolation (from Du Barry Was A
Lady) she’s on cracking , or should that be quacking, form, with
a co-star who knows exactly how a singer should sing a duet with her. Matt
Zimmerman rises to the occasion doing his level best to compete with her,
so that they really do sound like a pair of good friends teasing each other,
which is exactly the way this song should sound. Each of Ms Gold’s numbers on
this album is better than the last, and with the magnificent title song she
really hits her stride as one of the best singers to sing this song since The
Mighty Merman herself, in fact, with the possible exception of Kim
Criswell, probably the best since Merman. In some ways, Gold and Criswell
might even beat Merman with this number, after all neither of them is afraid to
emphasise some very risqué lyrics. If it’s Louise Gold you like singing Cole
Porter you like, why you’ll love this sassy comic song, as sung by a real
expert in the art of sung comedy, who treats the lyrics her own brand of
disarming vulgarity, and sings the melody with the kind of vocal power it truly
demands. But an even bigger and better brassy belting tour de force is on
display on the album’s pinnacle, Blow Gabriel Blow. Not even
Criswell under McGlinn’s expert direction could scale this mountain quite like Gold
can here. Even Gold herself, or for that matter musical director Owen-Edwards,
might be hard put to rival the performance on this track. It is truly one of
the most incredible pieces on record!
All in all
it’s an amazing album. Most of the performances on it are good, and all are
listenable to. This is one of those albums that can be played over and over
again, without being at all boring, the performances are all so fresh, alive
and innovative. The sound is beautifully lush, giving the work a whole new
lease of life, which such a wonderful Cole Porter musical might not
necessarily need; but it certainly benefits from being performed so sparklingly
and to such a high standard. This is one of Cole Porter’s best scores (a
score rivalled only by Kiss Me Kate), and this is a recording to
really do it justice. Overall it’s a brilliant recording, and one well worth
getting, but there is one extra thing about this album that just gives it an
extra special lift, and that is the leading lady singing the role of Reno
Sweeney. The significant thing about this part (the role of “an
evangelist-turned-night club singer) is that it was created for a mighty
singing talent, the great Ethel Merman.
With the
notable exception of Kim Criswell, I have not heard any contemporary
singer who can sing these sort parts as effectively, or as magnificently, as Louise
Gold can. So it is a real thrill (especially for those of us who saw her in
the Lost Musicals productions of the other four show’s in that quintet that
Porter wrote for Merman) that at long last here is a CD starring Louise Gold
in a Merman role. It is on this album that Ms Gold demonstrates just exactly
why she has been described as “an English Ethel Merman”, demonstrating
special talent for invoking Merman’s almost impossible to imitate styleless
style. But, while, by the very similar nature of her vocal quality, and shear
vocal power, she comes close to sounding like La Merman, don’t expect a
straight imitation. Because that is not what Gold does. First and
foremost she sings this as herself, and there are moments, especially on You’re
The Top, where her handling of song is most definitely not the way Ethel
Merman would have done it (or even have approved of it being done). Louise
Gold sings the material in her own unique way. A way which just happens,
almost by chance, to have more than a passing vocal similarity to Ethel Merman,
and it is quite likely she has tried to play up the similarity, just as she did
in the Lost Musicals productions. She is a marvellous performer of Cole
Porter’s songs (especially the ones he wrote for Ethel Merman) and
it is on this album she gets a real opportunity to display that shear talent.
If you like the glorious Gold, and her big brassy voice, then this album truly
is a real treat. It is my considered opinion that if you wanted to get just one
of Louise Gold’s various recordings, this album is the one to get.
Review (of Musicals
Collection CD: MUS C N40 )
by Emma Shane (© 2001)
If you thought that the EMI Classics recording of Anything Goes (conducted by John McGlinn and starring Kim Criswell) was very well performed and very accurate, but, a little tiny bit boring, then I would thoroughly recommend you try to hear this TER recording (conducted by John Owen-Edwards and starring Louise Gold), for, it is far livelier, and yet, none-the-less manages to capture the original spirit of the show (even if it does not stick so closely to it, note for note or interpretation for interpretation). This recording is a perfect combination of a brilliant songwriter, a clever conductor and a very talented leading lady. John Owen Edwards does a wonderful job of conducting Cole Porter’s music, in an exciting lively invigorating way, so that while the delightful tunes can be clearly heard they are never dull. In this endeavour he is well matched by his singers, especially the delovely Louise Gold. In my opinion Louise Gold is one of the very best people ever to sing Cole Porter! She sticks closely to the tune and lyrics, and yet at the same time injects a healthy dose of lively high spirits into any number she sings. The whole combination is one that can be heard again and again, without becoming stale.
Although Louise Gold’s performance of I Get A Kick Out Of You is not quite as sweet as Kim Criswell’s EMI recording, Louise never-the-less singings it very well, with strength, complete conviction, and a slightly more authentically Merman-like sound.
This recording very much eclipses the extremely well done but somewhat staid EMI Classics version of You’re The Top. The number is an absolute joy, proof if ever any was needed that a lively playful interpretation does not necessarily spoil a good song. One just needs a conductor and singers who know exactly what they are doing when they play around with it. That gifted vocal-parodieist, Louise Gold, rises well to the challenge of livening up this number (ably assisted by John Owen Edwards’s conducting). I particularly liked her (possibly add-libbed) groan when being told “You’re Ovaltine”. Yet, when she gets to the line (about Jimmy Durante) that few singers can resist livening up (even Criswell did it under the direction of McGlinn!) she surprises us with her subtlety, by underplaying it. Truly the number is handled with skill. Although Gregg Edelman sings his part very well, he is rather overshadowed by his co-star.
Friendship finds the glorious Gold with a duestist who does attempt to compete with her Matt Zimmerman. The number is a riotous joy, perhaps the fact that they had performed it together in a stage production of Anything Goes helped. Certainly it is a very sparky performance. Both of them sing with feeling and enthusiasm, and get right into their characters performances of the number.
The title song, Anything Goes, finds comedy queen Louise Gold in her element, belting a: witty, satirical, risqué, Cole Porter song, and one originally introduced on stage by Ethel Merman. Although Kim Criswell sang it very sexily, Louise Gold gives it an earthier touch.
The highest point of this terrific recording, though, is Blow Gabriel Blow. In this number Gold’s singing and Owen-Edward’s conducting reign supreme. They sound like they are having the time of their lives. It is pure joy from start to finish. John Owen-Edwards brings to it a wonderfully lively jazzy feel, while Louise Gold sings it with all that power she can so strongly command. It is a truly wonderful example of how a song can be performed in a lively enthusiastic manner, without being degraded. If anything the interpretation actually enhances the number.
It is my considered opinion that to this studio cast recording of the show Anything Goes is the very best recording that Louise Gold has made to date. I only wish it were more widely available.
