That song is,

course, by Jerry Herman

from his show Mack and Mabel.

I spoke to Jerry just a few weeks ago

because I wanted to talk

to him about Irving Berlin.

I'd heard that Irving Berlin

had played a big role in his career in his development and he said

yes that's true that he felt and still feels that Irving Berlin

is his mentor when he was just

a very very young man

he went to see Annie Get Your Gun

for the first time

he feels that that Berlin's music

is so available

so so pure and so simple in the right way

that he was able that night

to come home after the show

and never having heard these songs before

to sit down at the piano

and he played three of them

from memory

and he said to himself

that was the moment.

At that moment I said to myself

this is what I want to do.

So this first song is by Irving Berlin

and the second is

How did you like the song?
