tracks

I Got Plenty O' Nuttin
He Loves And She Loves
A Woman Is A Sometime Thing
They Can't Take That Away From Me
Let's Call The Whole Thing Off
Strike Up The Band
Things Are Looking Up
They All Laughed
A Foggy Day
How Long Has This Been Going On?
Summertime
Love Is Here To Stay
There's A Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon For New York
'S Wonderful
I Was Doing All Right
Oh, Lady, Be Good!
