Porgy and Bess - Summertime (1959) - Bess, You Is My Woman Now - I Got Plenty o' Nuttin'

I have loved this movie and the song 'Summertime' since I was a little girl.

It is such a beautiful song.

This is the original song and clip from the movie.

Here are four songs from the 1959 film of George Gershwin's opera, produced by Samuel Goldwyn and directed by Otto Preminger.

The tracks have been replaced from the soundtrack CD.

Loulie Jean Norman sings for Diahann Carroll

"I Got Plenty o' Nuttin'"
Robert McFerrin sings for Sidney Poitier

"Bess, You Is My Woman Now"
Adele Addison sings for Dorothy Dandridge
"Oh, I Can't Sit Down"
Pearl Bailey sings herself

Below is all 5 parts of the Broadway show.

Enjoy!
