Billboard” reported on August 3, 1959: Columbia Records taped Marlene Dietrich’s night club act at the Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro last week. “Cash Box” added on August 8 that the LP will be called “Dietrich in Rio”
The record was published in March 1960 in Mono (WL-164) and Stereo (WS 316) alike. At that time one had to pay one dollar more for the Stereo record. The mono version is acceptable, the stereo is scarcely any improvement noted the monthly “High Fidelity”. The New York issue of “High Fidelity” also had the shortest review: Interest: Poor repertoire; Performance: Dietrich; Recording: Splendid. Otherwise critics liked the record. The review I like most is the one by Louella Parsons which talks about photographer Armstrong-Jones (who didn’t shoot the photos) and adds a lot of gossip but says nothing about the record at all.
It has been speculated that this isn’t a Live Recording. There are some manuscripts in MDCB in an envelope with the handwritten title: Between talks for Columbia Album Oct-Nov 1959. This suggests that the intros were recorded later. On one of these mansucripts it says: Either after song 6 first side or as encore second side applause finale.
