Review by Mark Babcock

The album "Mr Top Hat" by Fred Astaire is a classic masterpiece that showcases the legendary performer's exceptional talents as a singer and dancer. Released in 1952, the album features some of Astaire's most iconic performances, including "The Way You Look Tonight" and "Cheek to Cheek."

The album's tracks are a combination of ballads and upbeat numbers, all of which are infused with Astaire's signature style and grace. The arrangements are lush and sophisticated, with a focus on the piano and strings, which perfectly complement Astaire's smooth vocals.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Puttin' on the Ritz," which has become a timeless classic and a staple in pop culture. Astaire's rendition of the song is flawless, with his impeccable timing and effortless dance moves.

Night and day Kiki's the one. Only you beneath the moon and under the sun. Whether near to me or far, it's no matter darling where you are I think of you....Night and day. Day and night, why is it so. That this longing for you follows wherever I go. Night and day under the height of me, there's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me. And it's torment won't be through til you let me spend my life making love to you.....Day and night....Night and day. Like the beat beat beat of the tom toms when my Kiki's cookie calls....
