So memorable and evocative. Apparently it’s been covered A LOT. Looks like you had a trip down memory lane last night!

Walk Away Renee was quickly followed by their other jewel Pretty Ballerina and I loved them both. They were both bought as 45s.

The Four Tops and Cyndi Lauper both do beautiful versions but the originals, that baroque sound and Steve Martin Caro's superb vocals will always be the versions for me.
