Titled
after You're Easy to Dance With, an Irving Berlin song from the 1942
motion picture "Holiday Inn," this collection combines 2-LPs-on-1-CD with
meticulously-remastered sound, original artwork, and new notes, quotes, and
discographical information.
The
27 total selections, recorded in various settings between 1952 and 1962, contain
music written by Astaire (like I'm Building Up to An Awful Letdown with
lyrics from Johnny Mercer); songs that he was famously associated with
throughout his career, including A Foggy Day, Change Partners, and a
medley of Oh, Lady Be Good, Puttin' On the Ritz, and Top Hat, White
Tie and Tails; and unusual bonus tracks, such as his humorous composition
and vocal Calypso Hooray.
