What Is This Thing Called Love - Cole Porter - Artie Shaw & Orchestra (78rpm)

[bostonblakie]

This was from a great recording session released on 78s featuring Artie Shaw, Mel Torme and the Meltones. I think it goes back to about 1946. I picked up an LP version back in the 80s. I Don't know if it was ever done on CD.

This arrangement was so far ahead of it's time. Truly wonderful, exciting jazz from a very deep and moody guy.
