Layton & Johnstone Bye Bye Blackbird

Today is pre-Depression-Era music by the African-American cabaret duo Turner Layton and Tandy Johnstone. The album is Bye Bye Blackbird. I don't have the song list but listening to any of the olde musick should indicate, within 30 seconds, the song title I believe.

I also played Sunday Morning Coming Down (Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson versions) as well as Sunday in Savannah by Nina Simone!

And talked about my acquisition of an Alexander McQueen dress.
