About This Version

Tony Bennett and Cyndi Lauper recorded “Makin’ Whoopee!” in 2003 for Lauper’s album At Last. I love how much fun they had when making this recording.

“Makin’ Whoopee!” as well as Rarities, Outtakes & Other Delights Vol. 2, is available on Apple Music.

We have a nice recording of Eddie Cantor singing “Making Whoopee!”
