1	Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Cole Porter did not die of AIDS, but he is generally acknowledged to have been at least bisexual, which seems to be the justification for assembling an AIDS charity album in which contemporary artists perform songs he wrote in the 1920s, '30s, '40s, and '50s.
