I always loved this version of that beautiful tune. When I was pregnant I’d play this on the stereo. As the pregnancy progressed the baby moved whenever this song played. After she was born, if I put this on the stereo her reaction was excitement it was amazing, she seemed to remember it. To this day she still loves that song…..she’s 40.
Nobody could equal Harry James as a trumpeter, and he was also a fine bandleader, one of my favorites. And this tune is just so gloriously beautiful, with his trumpet soaring over the rest of the orchestra. I can listen to it over and over.
