Puttin' On The Ritz - Fred Astaire

I'm in a rather good mood today.  One, illness has nearly lifted.  Two, got my first Daily Deviation over of Deviantart.  Not bad.  It's a day that calls for some celebration, and musically, it should be done a little old school.   Very old school.  It doesn't get much more classic than Mr. Fred Astaire and Irving Berlin's own "Puttin' On The Ritz."  This is the music that put some life into the 30's and, if anything, has stood the serious test of time.  Forget me saying that about any other song.  This is the ultimate winner.  Mr. Astaire gets you moving with dressed up like a million dollar trooper, trying hard to look like Gary Cooper, super duper.  Oh, if only he was still around to know that his music still is as well.  So do one thing this Friday, jazz it up.
