“Birds do it/Bees do it/Even educated fleas do it/Let’s do it/Let’s fall in love.” So sang Ella Fitzgerald on this, her sublime reading of a Cole Porter song packed with wordplay and witty double entendres. It was written as far back as 1928 for a musical called Paris, and has been covered by a host of musicians, ranging from Bing Crosby and Dinah ...
No singer could convey emotion as sincerely as Lady Day, who drew on her own experience of affairs of the heart to inform her gently swinging rendition of this George and Ira Gershwin song. Ben Webster can be heard on tenor sax on this performance, which was recorded in 1957, just two years before Holiday’s untimely death at the age of 44. Tony Ben...
From Cheltenham, Pennsylvania, this tenor saxophone maestro drafted in the distinctive voice of folk troubadour James Taylor to adorn his transfixing 2001 version of a Hoagy Carmichael and Ned Washington tune that was a hit first for Glen Miller in 1940. Accompanying Brecker and Taylor are jazz luminaries Herbie Hancock, Charlie Haden and Pat Methe...
This Kansas City chanteuse was a one-of-a-kind vocalist who could sing the words from a till receipt and make it sound supremely soulful. Here, bathed in luscious strings and swirling harps, she’s in full torch song mode as she describes the hypnotic effect of an ex-lover’s eyes. Written by Matt Dennis and Earl Brent in 1946, this mournful ballad h...
Hargrove’s burnished trumpet, with its nuanced phrasing, is as compelling and expressive as the human voice on this nocturnal ballad written by Johnny Mandel and Paul Francis Webster. Hargrove doesn’t need words to convey the song’s romantic sentiments, and the presence of a lush orchestral accompaniment adds a deeper glow to his performance.
Duke Ellington hailed this Canadian-born ivory tickler as the “Maharajah of the keyboard,” and his mastery of the piano is immediately apparent on his virtuosic 1964 rendering of a popular song by Guy Wood and Robert Mellin. Many singers – from Sinatra to Rod Stewart– have covered the tune, but Peterson shows that you don’t need to be a vocalist to...
Peterson pops up again (with his trio) accompanying legendary tenor saxophonist Lester Youngon his breathy but blithe interpretation of this 1952 recording of the famous Jimmy McHugh and Dorothy Fields song that was debuted by singer Adelaide Hall in 1928.
Though he had a big, breathy, masculine tone and could make his instrument grunt and growl, Kansas City tenor saxophonist Ben Webster proved himself a sensitive interpreter of slow ballads. This is a love song strongly associated with Nat King Cole– who recorded it in 1956 and had a No.2 UK hit with it a year later – but Webster’s take, with minima...
A New York pianist and singer whose voice was distinctively wispy and delicate, Blossom Dearie(her real name) showed a seductive side on this sprightly reading of a Bob Haymes-written tune that uses a fishing metaphor to describe mutual attraction. Featuring Herb Ellis on guitar and Ray Brown on bass, it’s taken from her 1957 self-titled debut LP f...
Saxophonist Getz and vibraphonist Burton join forces on their mellow duo version of a Rodgers and Hart song that singer Nina Simonemade her own in 1958. Nothing in jazz is quite as seductive as Getz playing in a tender, romantic mode, weaving silken phrases that make the heart sing. Burton is the perfect accompanist, providing soft, shimmering chor...
