Check out what iTunes has to say about Leslie Mendelson...
Our Discovery Download puts the focus on a different genre each week, offering up a free track we think is worth your attention. Any recording that begins with an old-fashioned walking double bass line already sounds like a winner to us. Add suave yet understated drumming, crisp acoustic guitar comping, and, most importantly, singer/songwriter/pianist/guitarist Leslie Mendelson's spirited voice, and one gets a song that does indeed, as advertised, "Hit the Spot." The bluesy piano and boozy horns that come in later fortify the song's adult-pop brilliance, which will make listeners frequently click "repeat."
