Mel Torme v Jimmy Dorsey

Does anyone have a reference for the original recording being made by Mel Torme in 1947?

Other sources credit Jimmy Dorsey's Orchestra, with Bill Lawrence on vocals, as the original version. See, for example, Second Hand Songs.

Mel Torme did record the song, but not until 1962, according to Mel Torme: A Chronicle of His Recordings, Books and Films by George Hulme.

Similarly, the infobox claims Jimmy Heath recorded it - but this was not until 1960.

If there are no objections, then I will correct these. footie (talk) 15:38, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear on record date

I feel like I understand who made the original song and when but I'm clueless on when it first would have been recorded, and if so was it the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, Bronislau, or someone else. If this gets answered I'd like to know where or how I could find a good quality recording, the best I'm working with is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsMIYP5qEoE and the only reason I'm settling on that is cause it's the only auto generated version between a Bronislau, Jimmy, and Bill Lawrence topic on YouTube that I can find.
