Sultry, sexy singing.......2007-02-17

This album was such a wonderful find. Janice Hagan has a rich, sultry and sexy voice bringing new life to some of the best of the old standards. There's also some good horn work. Cole Porter would have loved her singing his tunes. By all means, Let's Misbehave!

Great Music great performance.......2006-11-07

Wonderful, sassy rendition of many classic songs.
I may be getting too old when I say "they don't write them like this anymore", but for a relatively young performer, Janice Hagan is in no-one else's shadow.
She makes these oldies sound fresh, new and vibrant.
Great music Great performance

Where Has She Been!.......2004-06-30

Mr. Porter has nothing to regret.......2007-01-18

If you want authenticity, here it is.

Unlike some of his contemporaries, Cole Porter was a composer who was not driven to perform his own works. I wouldn't be surprised if this CD contains just about his whole personal output. His singing voice was certainly nothing to give Bing Crosby or Frank Sinatra or even Fred Astaire pause, but time has given it an unexpected glow of rightness. Just listen to his quavering vocals and you'll know what the song was about, what Porter was about, and to some extent, what the whole era was about.

The other numbers on this collection were all recorded by the big names of the day, some still fondly remembered, some fading, but all of them true professionals.

Five stars for the real thing!

Wonderful!.......2006-12-14

I had an LP of Porter singing these songs 40 years ago, it got lost, have been looking and waiting for years to find it on CD. Despite what the album says, every song has a vocal. Not with all the choruses and verses, but those clever words, at least some of them. The songs Porter sings used to be obscure, choruses from Anything Goes are rarities, Rudy Vallee sings what must (I could look it up to find out) be every single word that was ever put into Let's Do It! I think there is at least another chorus to The Physician (Porter sings that one too), but I'm not sure. (Could look that one up too.) I highly recommend this album, and have ordered another copy just because I like having duplicates of things I love.

COLE SINGS.......2002-04-09

Of great interest to any PORTER fan,because you actually can hear him sing 8 songs.Arguably,this is not the first cd you must choose to discover his music.I enjoyed hearing ANYTHING GOES from the voice of it's writer;this song,the title of one of PORTER's most famous show is often used in commercials.Among the highlights are THE PHYSICIAN,FIND ME A PRIMITIVE MAN and THE COCOTTE,not usually present in collections celebrating the composer.Should you buy it?If COLE PORTER is your favorite composer,yes.If not, you can let it go.If you've never heard his voice before,you could think like me,that he was born in a upper class manoir in ENGLAND.Of course,this is not the case because he was born in PERU,INDIANA.PORTER remains unique among the composers of his generation.His love of the FRENCH culture has always set him apart of his colleagues.

Crystal Clear voice.......2005-10-09

Debbie Lesser has a crystal clear voice with an excellent range. I happened upon her singing on internet radio. Her voice immediately caught my ear. Her songs are delivered with beautiful simplicity and range. The CD is well worth the buy.
