My Romance

Okay, here's a new idea.  I am not currently playing jazz, but I think it would be cool to pick one jazz standard per month and think about it, listen to it, analyze it, play it, etc.  We will start with the Rogers/Hart standard "My Romance."  Here's the original version:

More later. Whiteman swings it! Great info on these songs on Jazz Standards.

I'm starting with four versions:

• Paul Whiteman (1936)
• Carmen McRea (1958)
• Bill Evans Trio (1961)
• Ben Webster (1962)
