What a terrific find! Thanks so much for posting it. I LOVE hearing these hitherto unknown, hidden gems. I love how Jack Jones voice comes right it on the downbeat, with no intro; Burt has done that before, beginning with the voice right off. Does anyone know if BB/HD wrote a full body to this song; was it ever recorded? Are there verses and refrain?

Steve, Vincent, thank you for your comments, it's a pity that this show was never made.
With the great Woody Allen co-writing and starring....and a theme song composed by Burt
and Hal......how wonderful is that !
