As Time Goes By was a duet album recorded by Bobby Vinton and George Burns; it was Vinton's thirty-seventh and final studio album. The first three songs are recorded by Vinton and Burns as duets. The fourth, fifth, and tenth tracks are solos by Burns, while the sixth to ninth tracks are solos by Vinton.

At the end of the song "As Time Goes By," Burns makes a reference to the film Casablanca by saying, "Y'know, Bobby, this could be the start of a beautiful friendship."

The song "Gracie" was written in memory of Burns' wife, Gracie Allen.
