Songs of the Great American Songbook, that greatest archive of American music. Disparaged and neglected during the dark years of the '60's - '90's, currently enjoying something of a revival thanks to several films and the work of the inexhaustible Tony Bennett, among many others.
Much of the Songbook became Jazz standards, and provided the raw material for the best Popular music of the '50's.
I find myself listening to and savoring the Great American Songbook more and more, primarily through its Jazz interpreters, but have also been discovering and enjoying its more pop-oriented singers.
