One of the most romantic ballads of the 1940s, beautifully performed by Dick Haymes in 1944.
This is a carefully remastered version of the original recording, bringing out every silky note of Haymes' legendary baritone voice, the lush orchestra, and that unmistakable big-band warmth – perfect for late-night listening, vintage vibes, or setting a classic mood.
"It Had to Be You" was written in 1924 by Isham Jones (music) and Gus Kahn (lyrics) and became one of the most recorded standards of all time. Dick Haymes' 1944 version remains one of the most beloved interpretations.
Enjoy the magic of 1940s romance in high-fidelity remaster.
