This week on The Atomic Age Cocktail Party, we celebrate the music of Cole Porter. His tunes make up a good chunk of the Great American Songbook and where everywhere during the lounge era. We'll hear all the ways his songs were interpreted by hi-fi artists of the Atomic Age. On the playlist, music from Bob Thompson and His Orchestra, Sarah Vaughan, David Rose, and even Stan Freberg.
