Black Coffee (1948)

A Popular Song from 1948.
Words by Paul Francis Webster.
Music by Sonny Burke.

First sung by Sarah Vaughn in 1949. Later became a huge hit sung by Peggy Lee in 1953. I first heard k.d. lang’s recording, SHADOWLAND in 1988.

I looked all over for a more interesting and colorful cover, but alas…this might have been it.
