AN EARFUL OF MUSIC

Description:
Ethel Merman 1909 1984 was the brass voiced it was Cole Porter who said she was like a "brass band going by" leading lady who gave the first performances of countless Broadway classics. Her strident, powerful voice and larger than life personality filled any theatre she starred in. An Earful Of Music is certainly what Ethel Merman gives in Living Era's survey of her extraordinary show business career. How different the history of Broadway would have been without her! From the time of her appearance in Gershwin's 1930 show Crazy Girl, when she 'created' I Got Rhythm, belting a high C for 16 bars in the coda, she was on the road to fame. The disc sequence monitors triumph after triumph. She introduced a remarkable number of songs that have become standards: Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries, I Get A Kick Out Of You, You're The Top, Friendship, The Hostess With The Mostes' On The Ball and of course all those fabulous numbers from Annie Get Your Gun
