P.S. Listening to the above mentioned track I think that it is the best version of that song that I have heard !!...Cleo is in excellent voice on all the songs she sings...On the whole this is an excellent recording of the "Show"....BUT I can't get the film version with "Kathryn Grayson" and "Howard Keel" out of my mind....To me that is the definitive version of the songs.....There is still a bit of controversy over the songs that "Ava Gardner" sings and that includes "Can't Help Loving That Man"......whether or not she actually did sing them or was she "Ghosted" that is another person sang for her....I vaguely remember somewhere hearing her actually singing "Loving That Man" then the soundtrack was played and it sounded the same to me !!!....no doubt someone will know...be interesting to find out !!!
