1	Kiss Me, Kate [Original Broadway Cast] [Bonus Track] (1949) more music like this by Original Broadway Cast The original cast album of Kiss Me, Kate has been reissued before, on a late 1980s CD, but the 1998 20-bit remastering can be taken as definitive, and not just because of the improved sound. (Actually, sound is still something of a weak link in this release; the audio is rather dry and the voices often seem somewhat distant and always compressed.) ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!

5	Kiss Me, Kate [Original Soundtrack] [CBS Bonus Tracks] (1990) by Original Soundtrack The Original Soundtrack album for Kiss Me, Kate is, in most ways, inferior to the Original Broadway Cast album.

17 view cover	The Songs of Cole Porter [Avid] [2CD] (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Cole Porter's credo as a songwriter may well have been that no one is immune to heartbreak, and his songs paint characters right at the edge of falling in love, but still struggling with it, as if there actually were a choice to be made.
