A Bushel and a Peck

"A Bushel and a Peck" is a popular song written by Frank Loesser and published in 1950. The song was introduced in the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls, which opened at the 46th Street Theater on November 24, 1950. It was performed on stage by Vivian Blaine and a women's chorus as a nightclub act at the Hot Box. It is the first of two nightclub performances in the musical. Blaine later reprised her role as Miss Adelaide in the 1955 film version of the play, in which "A Bushel and a Peck" was omitted and replaced by a new song, "Pet Me, Poppa."
