About This Version
Tony Bennett recorded “Can’t Get Out Of This Mood” in 1967 for his album Tony Makes It Happen! This song, as well as the entire album, was arranged by our friend Marion Evans. We love his arrangements for Tony Bennett and are glad that these two geniuses are still working together.
