Ella Fitzgerald – Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Cole Porter Songbook (1997 reissue)
I know I’ve featured this album before in another context, but fuck it. This is my blog and I’ll do what I want.
Love is Love and all that, indeed, but so many of Cole Porter’s songs take on an additional, personal—color—when you consider he was a gay man who—if only subconsciously—wrote these songs as if they were being sung to another man.
He lived a very interesting life.
