The medley is a perfect example of Martin’s ability to take classic songs and make them his own, adding a touch of his signature style and humor.
“Them There Eyes” is a timeless jazz standard that has been covered by countless artists over the years. However, Martin’s rendition, with its playful trumpet accompaniment and his smooth, relaxed delivery, gives the song a fresh and invigorating feel. The lyrics, filled with longing and admiration, are brought to life by Martin’s expressive vocals.
Paired with “Witchcraft,” a song that has become synonymous with the magic of the Rat Pack era, the medley is a perfect showcase of Martin’s versatility as a performer. The song’s playful lyrics and infectious melody are perfectly suited to Martin’s laid-back style. The Dingalings provide a solid foundation for Martin’s vocals, with their tight harmonies and energetic playing.
This medley is a wonderful reminder of a bygone era when music was all about style, sophistication, and pure enjoyment. Martin and The Dingalings capture the essence of the classic Hollywood sound, transporting listeners to a time when life moved at a slower pace and music was a source of pure pleasure.
