...parade standings nor set hi-finatics atweeting and awoofing. For the most part Marlene Dietrich at the Cafe de Paris is little more than a collection of musical memories, taped directly from the floor amid the tinkle and clatter of a London nightclub performance almost a year ago, and sung, not always on key, by a middle-aged entertainer who has been around for some time. Yet, here, in the familiar laryngitic murmur of a voice as suggestive as the rustle of a taffeta petticoat in semidarkness, are echoed moments that have stirred men for as long as a quarter...
...intent on cultivating his daughter and converting Radcliffe into a likeable brewery. The highpoints of the enterprise are the lyrics (Stephen Addiss and Caleb Crowell) and the music by Clarence Chang. Their best song, "Love Is Blind," is a melody of professional quality.

Furthermore, the disks provide a brand-new musical guessing game...
