		What sets the Rodgers and Hart Songbook apart from the other albums in the series that Ella recorded for Norman Granz's Verve label, quite simply, is the quality of the material that she had to work with.
		With Hart and Rodgers, Ella's enormous generosity of spirit, her love for song and for singing, her sheer humanity are put wholeheartedly at the disposal of very great music.
		Hart, in return, wrote lyrics that are by turns scintillating in their wit and searing in their poignancy.

		Rodgers is on the Riviera to attend some kind of lavish party at the invitation of Glaenzer, youngish and handsome and wearing what looks like a silk kimono.
		Rodgers lovingly photographed them all in their silk negligées or their garden outfits of white cloche hats and polka-dot dresses, or their Pierrette costumes-it was the moment for puffed sleeves and tiers of frills on skirts-in which they pouted, pirouetted, and drooped charmingly against doorways.
		Rodgers had written a song, "A Ship Without a Sail," and thought it sounded "pretty hot." He had spent the weekend at the painter and illustrator Neysa McMein's and was touched by the flowers Dot had wired from Paris for his twenty-seventh birthday.

	Richard Rodgers & Lorenze Hart (Biography)
		These shows were also Richard Rodgers' (born 1902 to a New York doctor's family) start in the theatre, but he did not meet Larry Hart until early 1919, when introduced by a mutual friend to collaborate on songs for an amateur club show.
		Rodgers, then only 16, was deeply impressed by Hart's seriousness and erudition in every aspect of lyric-writing: later he said "I was enchanted by this little man and his ideas.
		Rodgers was far less happy with Hollywood than Hart, though, and was glad to return to New York in 1934.

		Richard Rodgers, the Broadway composer whose centenary was celebrated with the fireworks of theatrical huzzahs on June 28th, enjoyed long collaborations with the two most prominent lyricists of the American musical.
		Rodgers' melodies get you humming, then dreaming, but the subject and style of these songs, their matter and meter, come straight from Hart's heart.
		Hart is humiliated in the script, in Rodgers' withering comments and, for one scene, in the couture: he wears a plaid suit, collar buttoned up, that looks like a kid's pajamas.

	St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Rodgers and Hart
		Rodgers and Hart's best known shows are The Boys from Syracuse (1938), for which the songs "Falling in Love with Love" and "This Can't Be Love" were written, and Pal Joey (1940) which includes "Bewitched (Bothered and Bewildered)," one of their most popular songs.
		Rodgers and Hart shared an interest in a style of writing that would integrate words and music in an artistically successful manner.
		His refusal coincided with the escalation of difficulties--largely the consequence of Hart's futile and self-destructive battle with alcoholism and homosexuality--that had plagued the partnership for years, and the situation was now nearly impossible for Rodgers to cope with.

	Dearest Enemy Rodgers and Hart [New York]
		For the show, Rodgers & Hart's Dearest Enemy, I was sitting towards the front and in the center about seven rows from the stage.
		The show had been billed as a Rodgers and Hart musical, set in the Revolutionary War, that hadn't been performed in 60 years.
		Hart probably had to write lyrics to fit the genre and wisecracking and puns don't fit too smoothly into operetta.

		It was Hart's luck, just at the time he own ideas of his percolating enthrallment to these prototype musical comedies that the budding lyricist met the blooming young composer.
		Hart and Hammerstein are such utter opposites — as men, writers, 32-bar philosophers — that they could have been hatched by a Manichean as a test case in the polarities of personality.
		Rodgers and Hart collaborated once more: five new songs for a revival of their 1927 hit "A Connecticut Yankee." The last lyric Hart wrote was for "To Keep My Love Alive," sung by a noble lady of who tires easily of men — 15 husbands, 15 early funerals.

		Most of the shows of Rodgers and his longtime lyricist partner Hammerstein are known worldwide through their movie versions.
		Hart was a witty New Yorker, whose clever and topical lyrics appealed to "the boys at Sardi's – an urbane, sophisticated audience," says Meryle Secrest, author of "Somewhere for Me," a Rodgers biography published last year.
		Rodgers came from a comfortable middle-class home and was trained in musical composition at what later became the Juilliard School.

	Amazon.com: Music: Bobby Short Celebrates Rodgers & Hart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart had a series of Broadway successes in the years before World War II, with "On Your Toes" (1936), "Babes in Arms" and "I'd Rather Be Right" (1937), "I Married an Angel" and "The Boys from Syracuse" (1938), "Too Many Girls" (1939), "Pal Joey" (1940) and "By Jupiter" (1942).
		But while they worked together Rodgers and Hart wrote twenty-eight shows, did eight movies, and ended up writing over 500 songs, giving Short a lot of choices from which to select the twenty-six tracks on this album (and without doing "My Funny Valentine," which is an interesting choice all by itself).
		Hart's lyrics are not quite on the same level as those of Cole Porter, but they are close and listening to what Short does with each one as he sings them is the whole point here.
