about

My first remembrance of this standard was hearing Lee Konitz performing it at Strikers, in NYC, where his nonet had a steady one night a week gig during the late 70's. Much later, I learned the tune for my vocal/piano gigs in the Netherlands.. and Japan. For me, the lyrics are very important-, and they described something very necessary -I started fooling around with it and came upon a 12/8 feel and realized that it should be on this CD. With the talent and expertise of Roland Hanna and Ratzo Harris, this cut became a delightfully spirited "walk in the park" to record, and a personal favorite of mine.
