Ken’s a cineaste, and from the song titles I just got the notion.

Not my favorite Billy (I’m not that big a fan of Billy May. . . ) but the system is sounding so good, and with talk of Billy on another forum I wanted to hear that baritone.

As this particular album pops up from time to time I thought it’s about time I return to my LP version.
