Release Date: 1961
Label: Vanguard
Rating:

Carol Channing's 1961 self-titled album contains live recordings of her cabaret act, called Show Girl. Released three years before her performance in +Hello Dolly!, Carol Channing includes some of her greatest hits up to that point. Included are three songs from 1949's +Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: "Little Girl From Little Rock," "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend," and "Bye Bye Baby." "The Yahoo Step" is included here, as it is on her Jazz Baby album. It was reissued in 1979 as On Tour; both are out of print. This is worth it for Channing's effervescent, upbeat performance. The material, especially the comedy, is fun but not outstanding. This album underscores the need for a contemporary collection of Channing's best material and performances. The collector putting together that set would need this LP for that task. JT Griffith, All Music Guide
