Some notes about the composition as found on
www.jazzguitarcomprehensive.com/
Style: Gypsy Jazz
Form: A-B (16 Bars) [8-8]
A slightly different melody is used on both the head in and out.
Key: A minor
Harmony/Overview: The harmony of this composition is very simple. The A section begins on Imi before moving to IVmi, and a turnaround is then used to return back to the tonic minor. Many different turnarounds are commonly used, with the most common being variations of V7 - bII7, bVI7 - V7, and IImi7b5 - V7. The B section features very similar harmony, only beginning on IVmi - before moving to Imi. A common reharmonization of this section is to begin on IVmi7 and cycle diatonically in 4ths before arriving at the final minor II - V which returns to the tonic.
Recordings: This song has been recorded over 120 times to date and is one of the most popular compositions of all time in the gypsy jazz repertoire. It was first recorded by Django Reinhardt and the Quintette du Hot Club de France in 1937, and he would also record several times throughout his career. It continues to be performed frequently to this day and is an especially popular jam session tune.

    ... gran versión de este "standard" del jazz, con el extraordinario tenorista JOE HENDERSON, apoyado por el pianista WYNTON KELLY, que. por algo, fue miembro del quinteto de Miles Davis... HENDERSON fue un tenorista al msmo nivel de JOHN COLTRANE y DEXTER GORDON, encabezando agrupaciones que prescindieron del piano y que tuvieron un enorme éxito. JOE HENDERSON es, sin duda alguna, uno de los más destacados. músicos de jazz de todos los tiempos...

    Another great release by these top notch pros. Run to your nearest used record/cd source and do yourself a favor. The music is excellent and this one was recorded live. Anything done by GRP is great, IMO. See for yourselves. You won't be disappointed.

    Dave Brubeck composed it, but Miles Davis recorded it first. When Dave Brubeck recorded his own composition in April 1956, it would go on to be a jazz standard. But Davis deserves his due for recording this first.
