Comment:
Featuring the Andrew Sisters, Peggy Lee, and Eddy Arnold & the Song 'On A Slow Boat to China' (all used twice each). Didn't quite have enough room on the CD for a second version of 'Now Is The Hour' by Margaret Whiting (at the very end).Feedback:
This is brilliant. I appear to have many of these tracks in my collection. So all I need do is seek out the others and Bob's yer Dad's brother. You could save me all that trouble with the offer of a trade (cheeky grin and knowing wink).As I said -- brilliant.
Classic.
Nice tunes. Oh how I love 'Beg Your Pardon'. When I first heard it, my new goal in life was to learn it on the piano, which I did. Unfortunately I can't swallow anyone's version of Nature Boy except Nat King Cole's, which is truly magnificent... and is there a worse version than Alex Chilton's? I think not.
Thanks Orchid. I'm leaning your way after hearing the mix with Nat Cole's version of Nature Boy (it works better than I thought it would) and his IS probably the best. So, anybody who would like to trade has the option of choosing Cole's instead of Sinatra's.
Really great stufff. I quite like Sinatra's "Nature Boy." Almost as much as Cole's, but not as much as Veloso's. And with all due respect to Orchid, David Bowie's version is pretty wretched, but nothing beats Celine Dion's exasperatingly aspirational version...blech.
Nothing but good stuff hear (here).
Can't go wrong! nice work.
Great mix.
Apparently, 1948 was a very good year!
I always though Nat King Cole owned "Nature Boy", but I guess there are other versions . . .
