Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Not a book but a seven-inch, 45 rpm, white label "Advance Copy" one-sided "single" record (flip side doesn't even have a label, and apparently never did), Valmor X 008, vinyl near-mint. This song, credited to Billy Hill, was first recorded by Benny Goodman in 1936, was a…hit for The Five Keys in 1951, and became the theme of the 1967 film "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." It was also covered by Otis Redding in 1968, and used by Bette Midler in the soundtrack of "Beaches" (1988) while the 1995 film "Casino" resurrected a 1957 version by the Velvetones. (Huey Lewis' theme song for "Back to the Future," 1985, was "The POWER of Love" and featured a different lyric entirely.) This Roommates single now reduced from $41.
