we'll miss you, Howard.


Howard Keel with co-star Jane Powell


I fell in love with Howard Keel when I saw him "tame" Kathryn Grayson in 1953's Kiss Me Kate. One of my favorite musicals, and one in which I've performed Bianca a few times, Howard's presence captivated me onscreen.

The New York Times quotes him this morning as saying,"If you're a singer and love to sing, as I do, there is nothing more fulfilling than standing on a stage when you're in a good voice and belting out songs."

I leave you with this image from Pagan Love Song:

Hmmm. Mmmm. Mmmm hmmm.
