I'll See You - Under The Sycamore Trees
Jul. 29th, 2014 03:08 pmI'm a little late to know this, but Jimmy Scott passed away June 12, 2014.
I was listening to my Pandora mix (all my stations mixed into one) when it played Jimmy's version of At Last on my Ella Fitzgerald station. The voice sounded familiar, but I couldn't place him, so I read his Pandora bio. It mentioned that he made a comeback late in his career and even sang for David Lynch's Twin Peaks. Incidentally, the song that played just before At Last was Into the Night (sung by Julee Cruise on the Twin Peaks soundtrack) which played on my Angelo Badalamenti station. I figured that must be from where I was recognizing his voice, considering I had both the Twin Peaks and the Fire Walk With Me soundtracks and played them on repeat for a few months straight back in my teens, but still couldn't actually place him until I did a YouTube search for Jimmy Scott - Twin Peaks.
Oh yeah - THAT song. Good god, I love that song.
RIP, my man.
