As we continue on our journey through the 1930s and 40s, who better to begin with than Hutch, the West Indian entertainer at the piano and a perennial favourite – the epitome of sophistication. He starts us off with a charming if little known number Blossoms On Broadway, the title song from a long forgotten 1937 Hollywood musical. Much more successful, both as a stage and film musical, was Cole Porters Du Barry Was A Lady from which we have Do I Love You? Hutch is obviously enjoying himself as his humming can be detected during the solo piano passages. Kiss Me Goodnight, the apt closing number, features Hutch with orchestral accompaniment. An in-depth biography recently published (late 1999) gives a detailed and revealing account of the life and loves of this well remembered star. A fascinating read. Another who has recently been favoured with a new biography is Billy Mayerl, represented here is his recording of Song Of The Fir Tree. This unusual but captivatingly plaintive piece is based the traditional Swedish folksong Ack Värmeland, Du Sköna (as recorded by Jussi Björling and Nicolai Gedda). Recently married to theatre owner and manager Richard Aldrich at the time this recording was made, Gertrude Lawrence shines in The Saga Of Jenny from Lady In The Dark. On the shows first night, Danny Kaye had brought the house down in his rapid-fire delivery of the names of forty-nine Russian composers in thirty-nine seconds (in the song Tchaikovsky). The producers and Danny were worried that the shows star might be upstaged but their fears were groundless and Gertrude topped Danny (who was relieved to keep his role).
