Written in 1930 with lyrics by Edward Heyman, Robert Sour and Frank Eyton; and music by Johnny Green, "Body And Soul" quickly became a favorite of the best singers of several generations. Fifty-one years later, singer/songwriter Carly Simon put out an album of Jazz standards, the appropriately named 'Torch'. I thought Carly did a magnificent job with the classic, her voice a perfect fit for the song, her expressive voice so on point. Enjoy as she delivers "Body And Soul".
