Ah, I was going nutz looking for this thread! Thank you for reviving it.

(I'm an emotional listener, like I'm an emotional eater - can't cook unless I'm enthused about it. Annoying. So I saw your thread before, but I was in classical music mode and could not come up with anything to post! I suspect I'll be making up the deficit now.)

The one, the only, the absolutely magnificent Diana Krall:

I love this early, instrumental version of Zappa's "Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance." It sounds like something you might hear on the old Batman TV show.

And here is the late, great Mr. Cole's little girl... the lyrics on this knock my socks off.



And the original Frim Fram Sauce, by Himself.

Hard to find the entire track on YouTube - everyone cuts it off at about 7 minutes in.
(Some of these are cross posted from the other music thread. Hope that won't be a problem.)

Thanks for all^, thus far! I have to be somewhere, shortly, but, looking most forward to listening to what you've both shared, upon returning! EW, not a problem in my book, to cross post. Thank you for your consideration, however!

This is a cross-post from the *other* other song thread, but it really belongs here. This just melts my heart, they're so cute together.

^^ I was a jazz nut by the time I was about six years old. Caught it from my father, bless him.

(Didn't you post Song for My Father on the other thread? Could you bring that here?)

(Edit in: that soundtrack: WOW. I don't have a TV, so I've missed a few things.)
