Mel Torme - P.S. I Love You

"P.S. I Love You" was composed by Gordon Jenkins with lyrics by Johnny Mercer in 1934, and soon after was first recorded by Rudy Vallee. The song has become a standard through the years sung and recorded by many, but none more touching than this version by Mel Torme. "Tormé works with the most beautiful voice a man is allowed to have, and he combines it with a flawless sense of pitch...", not faint praise from Will Friedwald of "Jazz Singing".

This is bittersweet to me; I was 7 when my mother died; she visited my aunt not long before, in the late 50s [beboos age is fake on the profile]; things weren't perfect; years later,in my coastal bed, windows open, AM radio on, I listened to this song and almost cried. Memories are funny, aren't they.

Gordon Jenkins and Johnny Mercer wrote this, what a fucking combo! If there's a more laid back crooner than Torme they must be in a deep coma cos this man is aural valium. Absolutely beautiful rendition!

Whenever I hear the name "Mel Torme" I think of the TV show Night Court. The character Judge Harold Stone was a huge Mel Torme fan on the show and Mel even made a few appearances on it. The whole thing was funny but when you actually sit down and listen to Mr Torme sing.....his voice is magical !
