Sloan's tune, "Let Me Be," as recorded by the Turtles, is a simple protest song. In Sloan's album version, it's the plaint of an abused child.

P. F. Sloan: "Let Me Be"

"I Found a Girl" is one of the great self discovery and loss of virginity tunes of the Sixties. It was also the last hit for Jan & Dean. From 1965. That's the Wrecking Crew backing them up.

A Gus Kahn tune from 1931 originally recorded by Ozzie Nelson. Only Cass would have thought of going into the archives of 78 rpm tunes to record this.

Now we're talking!

I never thought much of the 1959 Shirelles' tune as produced by Luther Dixon. These folks elevated it into art.

Just beautiful!

Harmony and counterpoint were what they had going for them. They had only three years before they flamed out, but what an amazing three years!

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

HARD TO GET: ”YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY”

In his long career in France, Maurice worked both sides of the world of le chanson: le urbane and la comique. This recording from the Fifties is from the comique side, and it’s adorable.

Maurice Chevalier: “You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby”

Correct. Cass went in 1974 (heart attack), John in 2001 (heroin overdose), and Denny in 2004 (cancer).

Aw garsh and shucks.

The least I can do for the Canteen. All the useless knowledge has to be useful somewhere.

THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

HARRY WARREN

HARD TO GET: ”YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY”

Although Peggy’s decade was the 1950s, she had a massive hit in 1969 with a sunset song of regret. This is from her album of that year.

Peggy Lee: “You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby”

Tune in next weekend for more Harry Warren and the Great American Songbook.

I’ll bet it was. Lots of stuff their fans had no idea of, I’m sure.

Now, that’s funny! LOL!

You might be able to find that documentary on your cable company’s on demand function or streaming video at Amazon. It was time well spent.
