This effort by Johnny Mercer was during the last ten years of his life in which he began writing with a wider range of new composers. The composer here is Michel Legrand, well known for his frequently decorative songs that have a timelessness peculiar for most songs of the 1960's and 1970's. Bonnie Herman is the breathy voiced lead singer on this romantically inclined and yet mournful song, with excellent chordal backing by her colleagues in the Unlimited. Peterson plays a very tender solo aided by his trio members.
