My idol ❤❤❤

My goodness. I always thought Jimmy was the best alto until I heard this. Now I know he is.

0:43, where "Contrasts" began and where it ended at 1:58. 8 years later, that would officially be Jimmy Dorsey's theme song.

This was supposed to be the inspiration for the theme to the tv series Route 66. But even set at .75x speed, I don't hear it. Does anyone else?

[@valigor2003]

I'm not hearing it either. I slowed it down to .5 and still couldn't hear any similarities. However, it was, as George Maharis (and you) pointed out, the "inspiration" for Nelson Riddle's theme, and inspiration doesn't always equal something that sounds similar. Not to mention, Maharis said he wasn't sure about "Oodles of Noodles" being an influence on Riddle, just that someone had told him that.

@@valigor2003 I listened to James Barger's cover of this here on KZbin, and I thought I might have heard a little tiny resemblance to the Route 66 theme at the very beginning. But I could be imagining it....
