tracks

Fascinating Rhythm
'S Wonderful
Someone To Watch Over Me
He Loves And She Loves
Oh, Lady, Be Good!
A Foggy Day
How Long Has This Been Going On?
Let's Call The Whole Thing Off
But Not For Me
My One And Only
I've Got A Crush On You
Nice Work If You Can Get It
The Man I Love
Funny Face
Embraceable You
They Can't Take That Away From Me
I Got Rhythm
