Jackie Gleason Orchestra - I Can't Get Started (Original Stereo)

Some more on Jackie Gleason, read the information on YouTube. He took this great jazz song, by Bunny Berrigan and made it romantic, as all his music was.

Jackie Gleason & Orchestra - "Melancholy Serenade"

One of the few songs that I think tell a story. It is a story of mankind sweet and sour, happy and sad, full of trials and tribulations as we strive through life.

Video: Full-Length Program Watch Botany of Desire Online PBS Video
This is a wonderful program on Botany, it concludes that we can not alter nature. Whatever we do, nature finds a way around it.
Isn't that the way of the world ?
