Written by Peggy Lee and Bob Schluger in 1960, I Love Being Here With You was first released as the b-side to Bucket Of Tears on Capitol Records 4498. The original arrangement was credited to Bill Holman. This transcription reproduces the feel and texture of the original chart, while augmenting the arrangement to a full 5/4/4/4 line-up. This tune was a popular one in Miss Lee's performance repertoire and will be well received by dancers and listeners alike. The vocal part is notated "as sung" by Miss Lee and there are no sax doubles. The vocal key is C throughout.
