scott walker rarities and the late60s/early 70s
Gosh, i have finally found a post that i've been trying to express my own feeling all these years. That is: beautiful melancholy/minor keys-tunes were popular, became classics, etc in that great music era. You haven't exaggerated a bit in saying James Brown did "The Shadows of your smile"....

Re: What the world needs now - other versions
> If yes, please supply artist(s) record label and any other relevant facts
Yes Tom Clay compiled it as a medley of 2 songs:
What the World Needs Now and
Abraham Martin and John
Touching song indeed (especially for one who grew up in the 60s when
so much was happening)

RE: Michel Legrand- summer of 42

Summer of 42 - Michel Legrand

connie francis and some standards from the 60s
sorry this is off topic But this should be a place for nostalgia of those wonderful melodic songs of the early 60s , the era which BB had contributed a lot.

yes, Astrud really had that girlish
look which was so freshening and
pleasant.
Did you notice Stan Getz in the
film clip too ?
He played that famous sax solo
in the middle of the song.
