After thinking about it a while, I poked around my vinyl collection yesterday and found this little gem. I completely forgot I had it!
Ooooo-da-lolie!
Not only does it have all the songs I mentioned last time, but some more of my favorites... The Very Thought of You, For Sentimental Reasons, When I Fall in Love, and Stardust. The latter is one of his best, in my opinion. In it, I am transported to a garden at twilight and told the bittersweet story of love lost and it's endless haunting. I can barely listen to that one without being effected. Forget about when it plays in the "Sleepless in Seattle" soundtrack! Pass the kleenex!
Anyway, not only can I stop googling him like a psycho, but I also get to enjoy the vinyl version with all its patina and character.
Snap crackle pop.
8/23/11 Update: Oh hello. Last week I discovered grooveshark.com. Wait a minute. You mean I can search by artist, and listen to full tracks as many times as I want... for FREE? Sign me up!
Oh... you say there is no sign up? Even better! :0)
I still listen to pandora when I want a bit of variety, but I if I have something specific I want to listen to, grooveshark is the place. Check it out here.
Over and out.
Old records are the best. My best friend got me K C and The Sunshine band for a HS graduation gift.

One of my favorites of his is "Unforgettable" ... the one that Natalie recorded with his recording. So great!
