來自30年代的音樂劇﹐雖然經過時間的洗禮﹐然而有兩套劇至今作不斷重演﹐它們就是分別於1935年及1934年首演的 Porgy and Bess 及 Anything Goes。

Anything Goes 來自Guy Bolton 與P.G. Wodehouse 的著作﹐其後由Howard Lindsay 與 Russel Crouse 修改﹐而音樂劇中的曲詞皆是出自 Cole Porter 的手筆﹐而它與 Kiss Me Kate 均是他認為最得意之作。自1934年首演後﹐在英美各地均曾多次重演﹐單是電影也拍過兩次﹐還有電視版﹐另一方面﹐劇中歌曲更被廣泛重唱流傳。

最近一張Selections From Cole Porter’s Anything Goes 就把多個不同年代天皇巨星的版本組合而成一張 Soundtrack﹐而且還包括了1935年的 Original London Broadway Cast 的四首78轉留聲唱片錄音﹐部份又是1956年的電影版﹐成為一張非常特別的 Anything Goes 唱片。
