This version is sung by Helen Forrest with Harry James & Orch.
The hit song from the movie "Springtime In The Rockies" was "I had The Craziest Dream," destined to become one of the most popular songs of the war years. The seductive melody was perfect for the trumpet of Harry James, and this recording became one of his major successes.
