This track comes from the "Smooth Jazz" compilation, published in 2003.
This classic jazz and pop standard was written in 1938.
The music was composed by J. Fred Coots, with lyrics by Haven Gillespie. The first recording was released that same year by Larry Clinton and His Orchestra, with a vocal refrain by Bea Wain.
Since then, it has been recorded by countless legendary artists like Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, and Ella Fitzgerald.

Arthur Edward Pepper Jr. (September 1, 1925 – June 15, 1982) was an American jazz musician, most known as an alto saxophonist.
He occasionally performed and recorded on tenor saxophone, clarinet (his first instrument) and bass clarinet.
Active primarily in West Coast jazz, Pepper first came to prominence in Stan Kenton's big band. He was known for his emotionally charged performances and several stylistic shifts throughout his career, and was described by critic Scott Yanow as having "attained his goal of becoming the world's greatest altoist" at the time of his death in 1982.
