Pete & Conte Candoli – There Is Nothing Like A Dame

 

My Carol was watching on old movie from the 30's called "Dames" and "I Only Have Eyes For You" that lovely song was in it. That segment is worth a look. Briefly the couple, in the middle of a bustling city, seem to be all alone.  This has nothing to do with this post. But we took it out of the Library and I mentioned "There Is Nothing Like A Dame" and the fellow behind me said "South Pacific".

The Candoli brothers are on, like, a million recording sessions. But they recorded only 10 together as Leaders. It this any good? Looks good.....Weid thing is on Amazon the vinyl for this is offered at $200, $100 and $50. Discogs you can get a copy cheap around $6...
