more: "Stormy Weather"..Lena Horne's version. "Ain't Misbehavin'"..I gotta go with Leon Redbone's version..."That's All"..Bob Haymes,composer..I had the pleasure of working with Bob near the end of his life and he was one cool,crusty old guy. He was dying with Lou Gerhig's disease and converted to Christianity. He told me "I screwed every broad in sight and drank every drink I could get. Now here's ol' Bob Haymes on his knees. God must be laughing his ass off." I don't think so.

I really fell in love with The Bird of Charlie Parker. I have the sheet of music which is
(at my opinion) a masterpiece. But the recording he made was not that clean (may be
too much of ...  ).

All right, I suppose we could stretch the thread criteria to include songs that you think should be standards...
