Excerpt: "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" is a jazz standard generally considered to have been written by Jimmy McHugh (music) and Dorothy Fields (lyrics), although some claims have been made that in fact the music was by Fats Waller and the lyrics by Andy Razaf. According to the Jazz Standards website, the song was originally written as "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Lindy" in honor of Charles Lindbergh for the Broadway revue Harry Delmar's Revels (1927) but was dropped from that show.

The song has been covered by many artists, including: More modern artists who have covered the song include Joe Pesci on his 1998 album Vincent LaGuardia Gambini Sings Just For You, James Darren on his 2001 album Because of You, and Mark Weber on his 2008 album, "When I Fall In Love." ...http://booksllc.net/?id=80999
