Maureen McGovern - The Continental 1976

Maureen McGovern - The Continental (Con Conrad - Herb Magidson) Fox-Trot from the 1934 film "The Gay Divorcee", Recorded on 45 rpm record by PYE (UK, 1976)


NOTE: For me, it's the best rendition of that immortal tune, ever. That posh "Kensington English" wonderfully imitated by Maureen McGovern (who is an American singer, born 1946) is a piece of art and a big fun in one time. And the orchestral arrangement is fabulous, including the special effect (the champagne cork) in the beginning! Let it be for all of us a nice beginning of the New Year 2021.
