Today’s song, “Love Walked In,” was written in 1930 by George and Ira Gershwin. Though the music was written in 1930, the lyrics weren’t added until 1937 for the movie The Goldwyn Follies, released in 1938. There have been many fine recordings, including those by Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby and Artie Shaw.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded “Love Walked In” in 1956 for his album Tony, released in early 1957. The arrangement was written by Percy Faith. The album was produced by Mitch Miller.
