Side Saddle
"Side Saddle" is a hit single which was number one in the UK Singles Chart for four weeks from 27 March 1959.
The honky-tonk style tune, composed by British popular music pianist Russ Conway under his real name Trevor Stanford, was written as part of the score for a television musical adaptation of Beauty and the Beast. Asked to compose a tune at short notice, Conway wrote an "olde-world gavotte" which he called "Side Saddle". The song was a staple of the BBC's Housewives' Choice radio programme.
