Patti LuPone - Blow, Gabriel, Blow (from Anything Goes) in concert

Patti LuPone performs “Blow Gabriel Blow“ for George and Barbara Bush at the White House with the U.S. Marine Band in 1988. She first sang the song a year earlier when playing Reno Sweeney in the Lincoln Center revival of “Anything Goes.“ “With her burst of Lucille Ball red hair, a trumpet’s blare in her voice and lips so insinuatingly protruded they could make the Pledge of Allegiance sound lewd, Ms. LuPone’s Reno is a mature, uninhibited jazz dame: loose, trashy, funny, sexy.“ --Frank Rich,
