The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

August 22, 2013 By Suzanne 2 Comments

Song of the Day: I’ve Got Your Number

The song of the day for Thursday, August 22, 2013 is “I’ve Got Your Number.”

About This Song

Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh wrote “I’ve Got Your Number” in 1962 for the musical Little Me, starring Sid Caesar and Virginia Martin, who introduced this song.

About This Version

“I’ve Got Your Number” is from Tony Bennett’s 1963 album I Wanna Be Around. The song was arranged by Marty Manning with a great big band sound … the trombones at the beginning get me each and every time I listen to this song. The album was produced by Ernie Altschuler.

Today’s version is by request from this blog’s earliest and most devoted fan. Nick, you take care of yourself!

“I’ve Got Your Number,” as well as the album I Wanna Be Around, is available from iTunes and Amazon.com.

      It’s one of my favorites too. It’s a great arrangement as well.
