"At Last" ~ Glenn Miller & His Orchestra w/ Ray Eberle  (1942)  Victor Records #27934
Flip side of, "(I've Got A Gal In) Kalamazoo"
Words and Music by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren

As was standard practice in the 1930's, 1940's, & into the 1950's, several recordings were made of AT LAST by a multitude of recording stars of the day. For example, Charlie Spivak & his Orchestra and Ina Ray Hutton & her Orchestra both made good recordings of AT LAST in the early 1940's. Nobody viewed the trend of having multiple versions of a popular song being recorded & released in and around the same time period, as "stealing", and the term "covering" hadn't been concocted yet. It was a simpler time, before greed and lawyers were involved in the music industry.
