You Stepped Out of A Dream

[Gus Kahn Nacio Brown Nacio Herb Brown]

Known for a time as the theme song of Hollywood legend Lana Turner, “You Stepped Out of a Dream” was a modest hit during the 1940s. Musicians can appreciate the unusual chord changes and the tune’s 2 sections are a good framework for soloing. While never a popular choice among instrumentalists, select singers have kept it in their repertoire and it’s worth knowing.
