about

Originally composed by David Raksin for the classic 20th Century Fox film noir Laura (1944, Dir. Otto Preminger).

I'm a long time fan of film noir. This film is a hoot, and the music is even better. This theme became a jazz standard and of course I'll never do it justice the way that Errol Garner or Charlie Parker have done it. But I had to give it a shot. What did I learn? for my recordings, it works out much better if I have a clear tempo map or drum machine cue. This a loose cover using an orchestral recording as the cue. All part of the game.

lyrics

No lyrics in the film. Those lyrics by Johnny Mercer were written after the fact. Fake lyrics.
