Danny Kaye's second LP gives him more freedom than his debut, as he goes through a brace of numbers that made him famous on the radio and in his early movies; most notably &"Tchaikowsky." Paired with its predecessor, this is the tamest, most accessible side of Kaye's public persona, and also more sophisticated than some of the more overt comedy records for which he subsequently became more famous.
