Another voices inflected track from Legrand's superb 'Broadway is My Beat' vinyl. Nelson Riddle, Robert Farnon, David Rose, Billy May Andre Previn and myriad others were my listening fare before Legrand 'but' Broadway' put a stop to their gallop. Here was a French composer/arranger who could look the finest American arrangers in the eye and not blink. Afterwards I discovered that 'Broadway' was one in a series of masterly albums that began with the incredibly precocious 'I Love Paris' -- aged 22 in 1954.
