Really sad to learn of the death of Eydie Gormé. Not a jazz singer but one of the most classy interpreters of the gasbook. I first came across her singing Guess Who I Saw Today that classic portrayal of middle class infidelity. There've been jazzier versions by Nancy Wilson and Carmen McRae but I still love Eydie's version schmaltzy as it is and on this occasion I use the word in a complimentary vein. It just so fitted the mood of the piece. My day has been saddened.

one of my all time faves Lance as you know, and you are correct, Eydie did the best version, you could feel the vulnerabilty in her voice as the lyric unfolded. Her early LP's with Steve Lawrence were a joy and I had many of them. Liz
PS "I'll take romance" is my other fave of her's
