Cool. Love this song. Guess since it was composed in 1930 it's not in the public domain yet. Godd version here, Nigel. Heard nearly all you mentioned, but my favorite is Dizzy --he actually sings it (after a lengthy hormn intro  )

Finely aged jazz not infirm by a long shot. I'm a little envious of the alto sax because all of the samples I've tried haven't been good enough for what I've been doing, whereas tenors always have been.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#17: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#69: Bring consciousness to it.
#74: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#105: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Classic jazz at its best.
Great vocal and instrumentation.
Great mix.

Ahhhmmm back! Was talking about alto sax players last night, and somehow we ended up discussing song interpretations and this song was mentioned. I brought everyone in to hear this and it was a sensation, Nigel. Just had to tell ya that folks here love ya.

Nigel,
Excellent version of this classic tune! Your vocal works really well with this and that alto sax solo is wonderful. Terrific production on this to boot! I'm plus one to all the accolades above. Well done!
All my best.
