That's the one I was hoping to play today. All being well it's airing next week. I'll email you.

Yep. Can't remember where, I've had it ages. Full disclosure - the planned show didn't happen due to a memory stick fail, so I had to hastily assemble something from my vast archive of cheese & Easy. Think I just about got away with it 😃

Thanks all for listening ✌️🫡

Andy Williams's version of Can't take My Eyes Off You was a big hit in 1968

Embarrassed to admit I didn't know Frankie Valli did it first in 1967. Listening now and it is far superior, better handclaps 👐
