Having been reintroduced this last week to the harrowing experience of shuttling back and forth between the west and east sides of Los Angeles, I’ve had plenty of time to listen to music in the car. Santo and Johnny’s music is perfect for such a drive. When I put it on, my borrowed blue Camry becomes a beautiful lounge where banalities take on the qualities of dreams. Brothers Santo and Johnny Farina are best known for their iconic song “Sleep Walk,” but the prolific lounge masters have a considerable output worth checking out. Included here are versions of the Gershwin song “Summertime” and Juan Tizol’s jazz standard “Caravan.” Because “Sleep Walk” is always worth a listen, I threw that in too.
