hundred

blind
dates

"
Johnny
said
.
"
And
maybe
I
'll

sing
at
my
parties
.
"
"
Yeah
,
OK
,

me
think
about
it
.
"
Nino
said
.
"
Let
me
talk
it
over
with
my
lawyer
and
my
accountant
and
my
helper
on
the
truck
.
"
"

Johnny
said
.
"

's

There
was
a
long
pause
.
Nino
's
voice
was
sober
.
"
Hey
,
Johnny
,
you
kidding
?
"
Johnny
said
,
"
I
'm
serious
,
kid
.
Go
to
my
agent
's
office
in
New
York
.
They
'll

.
So

up
there
in
the
afternoon
.
OK
?
Then
I
'll
have
somebody
meet
you
at
the
plane
and
bring
you
out
to
the
house
.
"
Again
there
was
a
long
pause
and
then
Nino
's
voice
,
very
subdued
,
uncertain
,
said
,
"
OK
,
Johnny
.
"
He
did
n't
sound
drunk
anymore
.
Johnny
hung
up
the
phone
and
got
ready
for
bed
.
He
felt
better
than
any
time
since
he
had
smashed
that
master
record
.

Johnny
Fontane
sat
in
the
huge
recording
studio
and
figured
costs
on
a
yellow
pad
.
Musicians
were
filing
in
,
all
of
them
friends
he
had
known
since
he
was
a
kid
singer
with
the
bands
.
The
conductor
,
top
man
in
the
business
of
pop
accompaniment
and
a
man
who
had
been
kind
to
him
when
things
went
sour
,
was
giving
each
musician
bundles
of
music
and
verbal
instructions
.
His
name
was
Eddie
Neils
.
He
had
taken
on
this
recording
as
a
favor
to
Johnny
,
though
his
schedule
was
crowded
.
Nino
Valenti
was
sitting
at
a
piano
fooling
around
nervously
with
the
keys
.
He
was
also
sipping
from
a
huge
glass
of
rye
.
Johnny
did
n't
mind
that
.
He
knew
Nino
sang
just
as
well
drunk
as
sober
and
what
they
were
doing
today
would
n't
require
any
real
musicianship
on
Nino
's
part
.
Eddie
Neils
had
made
special
arrangements
of
some
old
Italian
and
Sicilian
songs
;
and
a
special
job
on
the
duel-duet
song
that
Nino
and
Johnny
had
sung
at
Connie
Corleone
's
wedding
.
Johnny
was
making
the
record
primarily
because
he
knew
that
the
Don
loved
such
songs
and
it
would
be
a
perfect
Christmas
gift
for
him
.
He
also
had
a
hunch
that
the
record
would
sell
in
the
high
numbers
,
not
a
million
,
of
course
.
And
he
had
figured
out
that
helping
Nino
was
how
the
Don
wanted
his
payoff
.
Nino
was
,
after
all
,
another
one
of
the
Don
's
godchildren
.
