Here's one of my all-time favorite love songs from the album "Ella and Louis."
What a band: Oscar Peterson playing piano, Buddy Rich on drums, Ray Brown on bass and guitarist Herb Ellis with arrangements by Buddy Bregman and produced by the great Norman Granz.
A classic recording from 1956.

This was back in the mid-80s. She still had it then. Just her and a trio, Oscar Peters and Ray Brown...don't remember who was on percussion. It was a truly amazing experience.
