Another #1 song from 1962 that was written off-the-cuff during the last few minutes of a recording session. Composer David Rose told his orchestra to go completely over the top, which explains those wild trombone slides. It sat in the vaults unreleased for four years until his label quickly needed a B-side for a single of David's. An office boy was sent to fish through tapes, and found this one. Rose was with Red Skelton for over 20 years on radio and TV as his musical conductor. You may remember this was used in 60's ads for Noxzema shaving cream. Take it off! Take it all off!
