Song of the Week: Stardust


From Wiki: Hoagland Howard "Hoagy" Carmichael was an American composer, pianist, singer, actor, and bandleader. He is best known for writing "Stardust" (1927), which has been called the most-recorded American song ever written.

And there's a reason why it's been recorded so much. Here's Hoagy himself singing it and accompanying himself on piano.

Have you ever seen the movie To Have And Have Not starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall? Hoagy Carmichael is in that movie playin' up a storm and its great.
