The Clyde Otis Music Group

There are special songs in the American Song Book that have the ability to conjure fond memories of a certain period, and when they were hits they captured the moment and the spirit of the times. 

Such songs have easily withstood the tests of time and are fondly referred to as classics; these are formable songs that are easily identified within hearing the first few notes. Songs like Nat King Cole’s “Looking Back,” Sarah Vaughn’s “Broken Hearted Melody,” Dinah Washington’s “What a Difference a Day Makes,” and “This Bitter Earth,” as well as a nearly endless string of timeless hits by Brook Benton including, “It’s Just a Matter of Time,” “Kiddio,” “Thank You Pretty Babe,” “Endlessly,” and “The Boll Weevil Song,” just to name a few.
