THE LEGACY

Album: I Don’t Worry About A Thing (ATLANTIC, 1962) The Sound: As the comically gloomy title track has it, “I don’t worry about a thing, ’cos I know nothing’s going to be alright.” Cool and swinging, and including the original version of Your Mind Is On Vacation, this is 33 no-fat minutes of popular music for grown-ups, full of mordant humours and musical surprises. Beware, though, if you start you’ll have to keep on listening.
