About

The original My Fair Lady ran for six and a half years on Broadway, a record for its time. The quality and excitement of the performances from Andrews, Harrison, Stanley Holloway and the rest of the cast are easily audible on this recording, one of the best recorded shows of all time.

An extra bonus on this recording is Percy Faith and his Orchestra playing The Embassy Waltz, which brings down the Act I curtain. Due to problems with how much could be fitted on a standard LP disc in those days, it wasn't included in either of the original cast recordings– Broadway or London – but it makes a fine and complete addition to the score.

Cast:
- Julie Andrews: Eliza Doolittle
- Rex Harrison: Henry Higgins
- Robert Coote: Colonel Pickering
- Stanley Holloway: Alfred P. Doolittle
- John Michael King: Freddy Eynsford-Hill
