Some info from the folks at JazzWax

From HERE.

"Jack [pictured] wrote the song for a nudist film in the mid-1950s. It was a one-time thing. Bob McBride, Jack'sorchestrator, arranged it. The film was ridiculous, and the man who produced it, Walter Bibo, was revolting. He found this pathetic young girl to sing Jack's song. She had hoped to make it big in the music business. I can't remember her name. She was a nobody, and she was so lost. Jack would tell me how hard a time they had trying to get her to sing it right. I'm not sure why Jack bothered to write a song for that film. I think he was intrigued by it. He certainly didn't need the work."
