Donald Moore has given this Gershwin classic a snazzy arrangement, with original lyrics by B. G. De Sylva and Arthur Francis written for George White?ÇÖs Scandals of 1922. Gershwin?ÇÖs first big Broadway hit is as fresh today as it was eighty some years ago and this deliciously jazzy version will give it a whole new lease on life.
