Lovely Frances Langford was indeed very fortunate to have this sensuous song written just for her polished rendition of this long time favorite. This particular chart was written by Bill Finegan but not for Dorsey. It is an early arrangement for the ill fated Les Elgart band of the 1940's which quickly folded in 1946. Fortunately for us, Tommy Dorsey bought some of the charts written for Elgart's band including this one which originally written for a vocalist. Tommy Dorsey imparts that same vocal-like quality to his performance which no singer could ever possibly match the elegant beauty of Dorsey's rendition. This recording from April 7, 1949 was never released until 1993.
