That's right; this is the great Billy Strayhorn; one piece the great Ellington didn't take credit for. Very authentic version and feeling for what Billy had in mind. the jazzy blues while downing those cocktails. Emmet's smile and playing say it all. He really gets authenticity and the spirit of the blues. Nice work by all players. Such restraint with underlying tension building. Strayhorn revealing who he was; Tyreek getting us in the mood. His voice is rich in all registers. Nice falsetto treat at the end. Top shelf stuff. This is what it's about.
Tyreek is so extraordinary. I think it was right after we had both auditioned at SFCM or something like that, I was about to pack up and walked into a room where he was doing some amazing soloing in a jam; great to hear him with Emmet and co!
Simply beautiful. Tyreek's vocals are Lush, sumptuous and have such a melancholy vibe; so apropos for this classic. Emmett's accompaniment is exquisite..
This has always been my number one favourite jazz song. And I am not particularly fond of vibrato in this genre. BUT! this is the best rendition I have heard so far! What a voice. What a depth. What a great, loving, silent power… Thank you Emmett, for this and all those other great artists you invite!
Molto bravi. Tyreek si ispira a J. Hartman ma è decisamente una bella interpretazione. Lush life è un brano stupendo e consiglio di ascoltare l’interpretazione di Archie Shepp a Montreaux nel 1976. Straordinaria.
Bravo Tyreek!! 👏 👏 👏
Johnny Hartman would be very proud!
Tyreek is a unique and wonderful male vocalist and Emmet reigns supreme on the piano.

This tune is a bear. Even Sinatra put it down and walked away from its complexity. You folks had fun with it. Way cool. Thank you.
Emmet's masterful accompaniment to Tyreek's sumptuous vocal has made my day.
This is the first time I’m hearing this song. It’s absolutely gorgeous and perfect for my Sunday morning right now.
It's one of John Coltrane's best Ballads originally recorded with Johnny Hartman.
@@stimpy1226that’s an iconic version but it’s not a Coltrane tune… music and lyrics by Billy Strayhorn
Billy Strayhorn at age 19. Words and music. Greatest jazz ballad ever
Tyreek has a truly gifted voice.
Sensational accompaniment by Emmett.
So many have interpreted this, Emmet's is breathtaking.

Emmet makes everything look easy. So incredible
I love this song and this wonderful voice and graceful pianist is pure magic!
This is such a touching rendition of this depressingly beautiful piece. I say depressing because of the meaning behind the song...

I was genuinely brought to tears by this beautiful performance.
John Lumpkin! Awesome as always, Sir.

He certainly was. Very same tone et al.
Thanks!

If Duke would had been still alive, he certainly would had hired Tyreek on the spot...

Exactly who I was thinking of. So glad his influence continues. Mr. McCoy also sings all the correct words-which is all too rare.
Yes, I thought so too.
Heartbreaking lyric ....
Nicely done!
Andy Bey.
Yes. Lives on.
bellissima versione, mammamia stupendo davvero
