I've been listening to Bobby Scott sing this song, from downloading his fine Mp-3 album here on amazon called Bobby Scott and his Trio For Sentimental Reasons. Scotyt was a brilliant songwriter, and I was huge fan of his super rare album with Larry Elgart, where he wrote great compositions (no songs) about new york city. Wonderful themes about various aspects of the big city. It came out around 1961 on MGM. and was called The City. You'll never find it. Under Larry Elgart's name. (I never found it in the Bobby Scott used record bins)
Thus, I've been playing Bobby's version of Sunday That Summer over and over again, as it's a wonderful high. It swings, puts you in the same kind of mood the Summer Wind does, plus has a gorgeous melody that includes mini melodies when he get's to "Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper...go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her". Words and music by George David Weiss and Joe Sherman. So, I thought I'd go back and here Nat sing this, as well, who has a voice like Nat's? It's buried in this mush of background singers. It's whited out. Now, if I can find another Nat King Cole version of this song...maybe on a live concert album...then I'll start all over again.
Next Summer.
