Thank you so much for posting this. It's the third version by Sir Harry that I've been able to find on You Tube and it's hard to pick a favourite. The 1959 recording is very traditional in every way. This one has a more imaginative orchestration and the other version has some delightfully manic brass scoring as if Spike and Peter were on the podium! I guess it doesn't matter which you prefer as Sir Harry makes this beautiful song his own. No other singer on You Tube even comes close. Cheers!
