We heard the Ella Fitzgerald version of this Cole Porter jazz song on New Year's Eve and realized it was a perfect lounge/torch song for us. Then Sonali realized she used to listen to the Simply Red recording a lot, which has a tighter rhythm, so we took that one as the basis for this, including the cello solo at the beginning that Jim plays with his EBow. However, we kept Porter's original score on hand while arranging, so as not to forget the jazz roots of the song.
Original song written by Cole Porter, 1944.
Cover version arranged by Jim Ingalls and Sonali Kolhatkar. Recorded on February 6, 2022.
