Perhaps the best known role Danny Kaye portrayed in a long and illustrious film career, Hans Christian Andersen gave Danny the opportunity of displaying a wide range of talents. Based on, rather than an accurate portrayal of the life of the Danish storyteller, Hans Christian Andersen gave rise to a number of successful and memorable songs, including 'The Ugly Duckling' and 'I m Hans Christian Andersen'. This particular album is rounded off with a number of equally well known Danny Kaye songs, including 'Tubby The Tuba', 'Popo The Puppet' and 'Tongue Twisters'. It is the perfect album for existing Danny Kaye aficionados and those new to his undoubted talent.
