DESCRIPTION:
A Fine Romance -- Billie Holiday 1936
In a second recording date under her own name was made in New York on September 29, 1936. Artie Shaw was replaced by a clarinetist from the Bob Crosby band called Irving Fazola, and pianist Clyde Hart replaced Joe Bushkin, with Bunny Berigan trumpet, Dick McDonough guitar, Artie Bernstein bass and Cozy Cole drums
Dorothy Fields and Jerome Kern produced this tune and it goes a little bit like this:
"A fine romance, with no kisses, a fine romance, my friend this is
we should be like a couple of hot tomatoes
but you are as cold as yesterdays mashed patatoes
a fine romane, you won't nestle,
a fine romance you won't wrestle
I might as well play bridge with my old maid aunt
I haven't got a chance, this is a fine romance"
