Notes
Following the model of the well-known Ella Fitzgerald and Oscar Peterson (among others) song book albums reuniting the work of great American song composers, Dave Brubeck prepared ANGEL EYES, which was dedicated to the music of Matt Dennis.
Born in Seattle, Washington, on February 11, 1914 (he died on June 21, 2002), Dennis wrote prolifically, with fourteen of his songs recorded by the Dorsey band in one year alone, including ‘Everything Happens to Me’, an early hit for Frank Sinatra.
