[edit] Shakespeare
-
- (cur) (last) . . 07:07 Nov 2, 2002 . . Ortolan88 (bit more, dunno whyyou took shakespeare out, so i put him back in)
I took it out because 1) it's mentioned in the Kiss Me, Kate article, 1a) it's slightly irrelevant, and 2) I think it reads better without it; the two parenthesized things right after each other are awkward. It really doesn't make that much of a difference, since the article still needs a lot of work, so I'll just leave it there for now :) -- Merphant
[edit] Linda Lee Thomas
i dont know how to fix it, but someone should fix the link to Linda Lee Thomas as it now directs one to the tango page.
- She now has a brief article instead of that bizarre "tango" link. Even beguine would have been more appropriate! - Nunh-huh 06:19, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] French Foreign Legion
There are somethings I've read recently (like the bio on coleporter.org [1] ) that claim that Cole never really was in the French Foreign Legion, but it was a story he maintained throughout his entire life. How does one one go about what seems like a popular but incorrect fact like this?
[edit] List of Musicals
Do we not have a comprehensive list of musicals he wrote? There must be one floating around...will try to procure
- Actually, we do -- the 'well known songs' section is organized by musical, with the name of the musical coming first.
- I think thats an odd way to organize it kindof, but whatever...perhaps each musical should be ear marked as a theatre piece as the films, etc. are for clarity Zephyrprince 21:38, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Well-Known Songs - 1932
Gay Divorce Broadway theatre production premiered in 1932, with Cole Porter songs After You and Night and Day. Gay Divorcee film premiered in 1934, including some new songs, not listed in this article. I have corrected the entry for (1932) Gay Divorce, in this article, accordingly. -- LiniShu 04:09, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Does the early 90's series of benefit/tribute recordings (Red Hot + Blue, Red Hot + Rap, etc. deserve mention under this topic? 207.69.137.6 02:59, 28 May 2006 (UTC)lasalle202
