THERE'S A LULL IN MY LIFE - Free Jazz Leadsheet
"There’s a Lull in My Life" was composed by Mack Gordon with lyrics by Harry Revel and published in 1937. The song was introduced in the film "Wake Up and Live," performed by Alice Faye.
Early recordings by vocalists such as Tommy Dorsey and Mildred Bailey helped popularize the tune. Its lyrical phrasing and gentle harmonic movement made it suitable for ballad treatment.
