Out of Nowhere
Words by Edward Heyman, music by Johnny Green
Vocal by Ruth Etting
Recorded April 16, 1931
Columbia 2454-D
Songwriters Heyman and Green, probably best known for their collaboration on "Body and Soul" in 1930, have followed up with another big hit one year later with "Out of Nowhere." This song has become established both as a popular vocal ballad and a durable jazz standard. "Out of Nowhere" was introduced in the Paramount western comedy "Dude Ranch" starring Jack Oakie, Stuart Erwin, Eugene Pallette, Mitzi Green, and June Collyer.
Ruth Etting's rendition of the song is one of the earliest recorded versions. She is accompanied by Manny Klein (trumpet) and Eddie Lang (guitar.)
