Toots Thielemans-La valse des lilas(once upon a summertime)

[robertomontalbano68]

Grande Toots riesci sempre a far sorridere la mia anima con la tua armonica.

[NovaScotiaChick]

It just makes me want to sit in a classy restaurant with a good friend and a good bottle of wine, all dressed up, Toots in the background, waiting for my sole aux amandes ha ha ha! The wine is a Chablis perhaps, or Petit Chablis, or Sauvignon Blanc, no, it's a Blanc de Noir from Boschendal, South Africa.... aaah now I really feel like a glass of that :)

[JunLiga]

Wow, Sherley Horn's voice is amazing... so endearing and yet profound...

[wavesofgrain1]

Toots is subperb...his interim after Shirley gives me goose bumps. When I listen to Shirley singing this song, tears well in my eyes. This collaberation is one of the most moving versions I've heard of this song.

We miss you Shirley Horn

If you have any chance of getting this album/CD, do not waste time, you will not regret it, an album to daydream along, truly, sincerely.

[MrMagnusFogg]

@rmgj

...wise words...this album is one of the 20 or so I have with Mr Thielemans...not to mention the four live concerts and one cd, The Cd, kindly signed by him :-)

[rmgj]

@MrMagnusFogg Thank you very much, wow on your collection and your luck, cheers and all the best ever.

[MrMagnusFogg]

@rmgj ...I forgot to mention all the albums of Mr Michel Legrand and the concert I had the luck and honour to attend...anyway, "rmgi", the important in all this is that by now there are 50 "likes" and not one single "dislike", not to mention the pleasant absence of the usual personal insults between experts, something that unfortunately abounds in this miracle called YouTube...

"saxfox56", thank you for sharing this pearl with us, people of good will...may the Gods bless you with a smile :-)

[rmgj]

@MrMagnusFogg Very very true, gentle man's music, gentle man's chat, gentle man's world, cheers

[maidoodesu]

so nice !  ですね.

[wimpers]

So Shirley Horn wasn't playing the piano herself?

One of Michel Legrand's beautiful songs. Thanks for sharing this!

[1JimP]

Indeed "enjoy"... Is that my lady "ms shirley" on vocal? If you have time or inclination, you might add the members playing in support...?

Thanks for sharing \O/
