Album Notes & Community Reviews

Defined by Al Bowlly's immensely sentimental crooning, this highly romantic dance band standard epitomizes the luxurious, nocturnal atmosphere of the 1930s transatlantic ballroom. Its deeply longing, melodic warmth famously achieved a chilling second life decades later upon its inclusion in the film 'The Shining'.
