Ella Fitzgerald sings " This Tines The Dreams on Me"  Along with the more famous "Blues In The Night" written by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer from the film with he same name, This Tines the Dreams' on me is a lovely ballad containing a beautifully constructed bridge or release that steadily climbs upward before relaxing into the final chorus.
Ella, as usual, sings with her characteristic charm and warmth while performing a ballad.
NOTE: Arlen had hoped that the arrangements for his Arlen Songbook could be done by Nelson Riddle whose Fitzgerald/Riddle Gershwin Songbook is the finest set of 50 plus arrangements I have ever heard for an individual composer's Songbook.
