THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

GEORGE GERSHWIN

LINDA RONSTADT: “THE MAN I LOVE”

”The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones,” a limited series produced for ABC in the early Nineties by George Lucas, told of the early years of Indy before, during and after World War I. Twisting history a bit, Lucas moved the song back to 1920 and George White’s Scandals. A brief segment showed the introduction in its original up-tempo arrangement during rehearsal. Then Gershwin took the singer to a blues club and showed her how he really wanted it done.

Linda Ronstadt voiced over this 1992 version, a clip from the TV show. It includes the complete intro.

Can't hardly believe your hitting every note tonight Luv!

For my funeral one day I have a very somber song that will play for those who mourn in my family........tears will likely shed....but then following at just the right moment the Pastor will play this song and they will understand my joy.
They know me so they will understand and smile...probably chuckle too.
