From my archives. Theme from British TV series 'Birds of a feather'.
Anyone remember the series?

A version of What'll I Do? was indeed used as the theme song for "Birds Of A Feather", but it was a well-established standard song long before that - written by no less than Irving Berlin!

Very true Jim, written in 1923. Any thoughts on the instrumental?

It's impressive.

It could have been a demo for "Simply Shadows"!

That's the one. The backing track in particular is highly reminiscent of the period.
