It's amazing how few recordings of AT LAST were made between the Miller and
Anthony versions (1942-1952). I did see that Charlie Spivak recorded it for
Columbia (36642), which puts it around Oct. 1942. Tony Martin also did it
but it may have been a cover of the Anthony hit. There's got to be others
from the 40's.
