Anything Goes: Rebecca Luker Sings Cole Porter

Anything Goes: Rebecca Luker Sings Cole Porter

This disc isn't nearly as prim and proper as its opening. Accompanied by a ragtime orchestra, Rebecca Luker begins the title tune with the air that she'd actually find a glimpse of stocking shocking, before Patrick Brady's arrangement breaks into full swing. Luker's pure soprano (best known for leading-lady roles in The Secret Garden, the Sound of Music revival, and Hal Prince's Show Boat) never regresses into true bawdiness in that song, but she sounds absolutely lovely on the 14 Cole Porter gems included on this album. She's ably assisted by guests Emily Loesser, Sally Mayes, and Brent Barrett. "In the Still of the Night" causes time to stand in place, and "Dream Dancing" will transport you away.... --David Horiuchi
