Just a few great versions of this great tune...





Paul Cezanne: "I could paint for a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing."

Edgar Degas: "Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.... To draw, you must close your eyes and sing."

Georges Braque: "In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that can’t be explained."

    'tis a beautiful tune, a favourite of mine.
    For us saxophonists, the most famous interpreters are, perhaps -
    .
    John Coltrane with Johnny Hartman vocal:

    .
    and Michael Brecker:

    Nice.

    Have you ever heard this one by Houston Person with only bass accompaniment?



    And this wonderful version by Stephane Grappelli with some lovely Lang-style guitar accompaniment by Barney Kessel...

    Paul Cezanne: "I could paint for a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing."

    Edgar Degas: "Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.... To draw, you must close your eyes and sing."

    And for us who (like Django, ha!) play a bit of trumpet, and sometimes sing, there is of cause Chet Baker. I miss the days when he was still around and playing in clubs and on concert stages.

    Martin Weiss plays a nice version with Bireli (solo, i.e. duo!) on Bireli's "Gipsy project" DVD - it's available here (start at 1:02:00) (actually this was my introduction to the tune!)

    Also Ian Date (Australia/Ireland) has a nice fingerstyle version, often played as a segue into something else (Minor Swing on a version I have, 'In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning' on this one):
