9780394727646: The Complete Lyrics of Cole Porter

Synopsis

A hefty book full of splendid song lyrics that confirm just how brilliant Ira Gershwin was as a wordsmith and lyricist. He was so often 'the forgotten Gershwin' because of the immense popularity of his brother, the genius George Gershwin, but one has to admit that most of the lyrics gathered in this 414-page coffee table book are simply a joy to read and savour. With 50 illustrations and plenty of background information. The English edition of this book was published by Pavilion Books in 1994.
