Autumn Leaves

A prime example of why Matt was a balladeer without peer, perfection of diction, sensitive phrasing combining to extract every ounce of emotion from the lyric. The combination of such a natural vocal with the sympathetic Spence orchestration makes this one of the finest torch songs ever recorded.

I always thought Nat King Cole sang the definitive version so I have not paid any attention to the Matt Monro version. Must play it now.
