    June Christy's voice just makes me melt; one of my all time fav. singers period. And she was also so beautiful.

    Thank you for posting this from her appearance at Newport/New York with Kenton in, I believe 1972. This snippet is fresh from a collection of at least 2 others from the same set. June doesn't have so many videos of her later career on You Tube, so we think of this find as a real treat. June was my aunt, and she sounded and looked great on this tour. Wish I could have been there in person.

      More like soured wine. I don't know exactly when it happened, but she should have stopped singing years before.

    As much as I've begun to dislike genre labels, the older I get, I regard Stan Kenton's various projects, including this stellar one/era with June Christy as being vital, if not singularly so, in defining the real beginning of 'progressive' modern musics; including fusion and prog/art rock.

    This must be her worst recording of this song. It's terrible. She just didn't have the voice that made her earlier recordings immortal. Too much smoking, I guess. I'm sorry I stumbled across it.

      It isn't the same as her recording that's true. Live performances never are. There is nothing wrong with this performance.

      Have to agree with you. Off key and crazy vibrato.

      But I keep her earlier recording of this song in my June Christy file along with
      "Something Cool," "I Didn't Know What Time it Was," and "What's New." Now that you remind me, I'm going to look for others that I can add.
