CRITIC REVIEWS:
" Merman rolls though PANAMA HATTIE with the greatest gusto, giving it a shake and a gleam and plenty of syncopation...The Merman hangs bangles on any song that comes her way."
- Brooks Atkinson, THE NEW YORK TIMES, 31 Oct., 1940
"CALL ME MADAM, one of Irving Berlin's most enchanting scores: fresh, light, and beguiling, and fitted to lyrics that fall out of it with grace and humor."
- Brooks Atkinson, quoted in Brian Kellow's ETHEL MERMAN: A LIFE, pp. 121-142.
