Greetings---I'm doing a little more research for a new fakebook...
What are your favorite tunes written by musicians for jamming in a hotclub style? For this discussion, let's narrow it down and not include anything from the "Django Fakebook", Realbook type jazz standards or Django compositions. Anything from between 1920 and 2020 would be good :^) Thanks--Joel
Here are [mostly] originals from a collection of grilles . Does anyone play these?

Good choices. I'll add "Dominique" by Soeur Sourire ;^)
Lolita - Hono W.
Mimosa - (from Bireli's cd Move - Dorado Composer??)
Savoir Vivre - Martin Wiess
@Quadropenta - would love to see a few from your list (moreno's dikeno sinto)!
Mimosa was composed by Hono Winterstein as well. If you understand French, you can hear him and Bireli discuss it on this clip here. If not, in short, Bireli says it is Hono's composition and Hono says that he named the song after his girl (who was named for the flower).
“Jeeves and Wooster” theme song...
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."

whoah I never realised how much Jeeves and Wooster theme sound like the verse of Sheik of Araby (if you don't know the verse part, angelo plays it in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxb_Sm05qK0)
@Billy_at_WICA - good call! Hono is actually a killer composer, so is Diego Imbert.
Anyone else think some of the 'balkan' triptich from Sebastien Gineaux's Melodie Des Choses would be cool?
