This song was first recorded by pianist Horst Jankowski, whose version reached
#1 on the Billboard Charts. Herb Alpert recorded it the same year and it was
used as the theme to the game show "Reach for the Stars" and in Piggly Wiggly
commercials. The arrangement is pretty close to Herb's recording, with a little
extra harmony and a slightly different intro. A nice addition to your quintet's
Tijuana Brass collection!
