"Since I Fell for You" is a #bluesBallad composed by #BuddyJohnson in 1945 that was first popularized by his sister, #EllaJohnson, with Buddy Johnson and His Orchestra. A version by #AnnieLaurie with #PaulGayten and His Trio in 1947 led to its eventual establishment as a jazz and #popStandard.

Pianist & bandleader Buddy Johnson

#Interestingly Pianist/bandleader Buddy Johnson noticed Etta Jones at that Apollo Theater talent contest and hired her as the female singer in his big band (while his sister, Ella Johnson, was on maternity leave). Jones stayed for a little over a year. #EttaJones #BuddyJohnson #OneHitWondered
