"Thank you, thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much. At this time we would like to keep the show underway, under way, by playing a tune, an oldie, uh, this was done for the Savoy label. On the Savoy label it was released I think about 1945. It was amongst the first that was done on Savoy, down in New York. We sincerely hope you, those of you that haven't heard this tune before will still like 'Now's the Time'..."
