Shirley Bassey: Pieces Of Dreams

Here is a wonderful, and rarely heard, song (music by Michel Legrand and lyrics by Marilyn & Alan Bergman), magnificently performed by Shirley Bassey. First released in 1971 on her album “Something Else“ and as B-side of her “Diamonds Are Forever“ single, this song is also entitled “Little Boy Lost“. It was the title song of the 1970 United Artists movie “Pieces Of Dreams“ (in which it is sung by Peggy Lee). It has also been recorded by Barbra Streisand, Sarah Vaughan, Della Reese, Mel Tormé or Jack Jone
