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.[2][3] Asked to compose a tune at short notice, Conway wrote an "olde-world gavotte" which he called "Side Saddle".[4] The song was a staple of the BBC's Housewives' Choice radio programme.[5]
