I HADN'T ANYONE TILL YOU - Free Jazz Leadsheet

Composed by Ray Noble in 1938, "i hadn't anyone till you" is a romantic ballad celebrating the transformative power of love. Its lyrics convey the joy and fulfillment that comes from finding a true companion.

The first recording, by Ray Noble and His Orchestra featuring vocalist Al Bowlly in London, 1938, emphasized lyrical phrasing over elegant orchestral backing. Its harmonic structure and melody offer space for expressive interpretation.

Subsequent jazz and pop recordings highlighted its timeless appeal, with both vocalists and instrumentalists emphasizing emotional nuance and melodic beauty.
