It doesn't get any better than this

This Was 'The Manhattan Transfer' At Their Very Best 🎶

[@MrTBoneMalone]

This has to be the most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard. I've loved it since I was a high school kid in the early 80's.

I heard them several times at the Hollywood Bowl many years ago, every time they appeared actually. This is one of their finest that shows their unity and tight interaction. I’m almost brought to tears by this song. The harmonies are so beautiful!

This song alone is what got me into jazz in Middle School and singing in small groups. Before that I was just thinking big groups and kind of hide.

I have read in comments on RUclips that the exquisite arrangement performed by MT here was by Gene Puerling, the founder of Singers Unlimited. Can anyone document this?
