Cast Recording - Kitty's Kisses

PS Classics continues it's forgotten musicals series, which kicked off with Vincent Youman's' Through the Years and Kay Swift's Fine & Dandy, with the world premiere recording of the 1926 'bright new summer musical delight' Kitty's Kisses. This tuneful charmer beguiled Broadway audiences in it's day ('a musical that moves with a swing and a smack and a smirk' - the New York Sun), spawning several hit songs, but like so many musicals of it's era, it's faded unfairly into obscurity. The music is by Con Conrad, who took home the first Academy Award for Best Song ('The Continental' in 1934); the lyrics are by Gus Kahn, whose standards include 'It Had to Be You,' 'I'll See You in My Dreams,' and 'Makin' Whoopee.' the book was co-authored by celebrated librettist Otto Harbach (Roberta, Desert Song, and No, No, Nanette!). Now PS Classics has assembled Broadway's best musicians and an all-star cast - including Rebecca Luker (The Secret Garden, Mary Poppins), Danny Burstein (South Pacific), Andréa Burns (In the Heights), Christopher Fitzgerald (Young Frankenstein) and Steven Pasquale (A Man of No Importance) - to bring this delightful Jazz Age hit vividly to life.
