Doc Pomus died twenty years ago today. With his partner Mort Shuman he was the "other" great songwriting team of the Brill Building in the late fifties, after Lieber and Stoller. Like any good professional songwriters, Pomus and Shuman wrote a lot of songs for a lot of singers, and Andy Williams would not be an obvious choice for their work. But here it is. I always loved the pizzicato strings in this arrangement.
