"Memories of You" is a popular song about nostalgia^[1] with lyrics written by Andy Razaf and music composed by Eubie Blake and published in 1930.

Song history

The song was introduced by singer Minto Cato in the Broadway show Lew Leslie's Blackbirds of 1930. A 1930 version recorded by Louis Armstrong featuring Lionel Hampton is the first known use of the vibraphone in popular music.

The Armstrong recording in 1930 was reviewed by Times magazine's monthly record review alongside opera records and Western art music records of composers such as Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, and Ravel.^[2]

A version of the song recorded by The Four Coins from the biopic The Benny Goodman Story reached #22 on the Billboard magazine chart in 1955.

Doc Severinsen and the NBC Orchestra performed an instrumental version on the final episode of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, on May 22, 1992. The song played over a five-minute montage showing brief silent clips of some of Carson's favorite guests, seen interacting with him through the years. This was also the final song on the final album Frank Sinatra recorded for Capitol Records, Point of No Return, from 1962.

Between 1970 and 2019 the song was used as the theme song for the popular NRK radio program Nitimen. That version was an uptempo version by Werner Müller (musician) and his orchestra from 1964.
