Gogi Grant was a major star who appeared at top cabaret venues across America and on many of the major television shows of her era. In 1956 she was voted Most Popular Female Vocalist by Billboard magazine. Across this 2CD set we focus on her output from the late '50s with the albums 'Gigi', 'Welcome to my Heart', 'Torch Time' and 'Granted - It's Gogi', the later two containing fantastic orchestral backing of Henri René and Johnny Mandel. We also include Gogi's remaining singles of that time, the biggest hit being 'Kiss Me Honey, Honey Kiss Me'. The diversity of material throughout this fantastic 2CD set leaves no doubt as to what a remarkable vocalist Gogi Grant was.

First time on CD! Two of Howard Keel's biggest movie roles at MGM were the great American musicals Show Boat and Kiss Me Kate. On this CD, in glorious stereo, Keel recreates his roles singing selections from the two shows. This studio cast recording also enjoys the expertise of maestro Henri Rene, who arranged and conducted the orchestra. Keel enjoyed a comeback in the 1980s with his TV appearance in Dallas.
