The song was first recorded by Vallee with The Connecticut Yankees,[3] as the B side of his song "Weary River".[4]
It has been covered by many jazz musicians,[4][5] notably Sonny Clark in his album Cool Struttin', Bud Powell and Art Tatum.[6][7] It has also been recorded by vocalists Frank Sinatra [8] and more recently Barbara Rosene on her album of the same name.[9]
