“Can’t Help Lovin Dat Man” from Show Boat (1994 Broadway Revival Cast)

music Jerome Kern lyric Oscar Hammerstein II

performance Lonette McKee, Gretha Boston, Michael Bell and Company

—

In celebration of Lonette McKee’s birthday!  

Eleven years before the Hal Prince helmed-Show Boat, Lonette McKee played Julie in a Houston Grand Opera’s production of Show Boat on Broadway (with Ron Raines and Ravenal!).  At the time, she was the first African American woman to play the role on Broadway.  I love the hint of Cleo Laine she brings to the proceedings. 

And there are simply not enough good things to be said about Gretha Boston’s Tony-winning performance, or Michael Bell’s.  

And I might as well state the obvious, which is that this is one of the greatest songs ever written in any medium.

Just because I’m in a different country without a computer doesn’t mean I didn’t prepare for today! This is quality blogging.

It has to be good.
