Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

I'm listening to Birdland

First I listened to the Manhattan Transfer version, it's a joy

Now I'm listening to Weather Report.

Jaco and Shorter....mmmmm

next is Buddy Rich's big band rendition

I love to listen to different versions of the same tune.

How about you? Which ones?

another one of my favs is

Clouds

done by Joni Mitchell (who wrote it) and by Judy Collins (who gave it wings)

they are both great

and how about Woodstock

the Joni Mitchel version and the CSN&Y version?

How many times and ways did Coltrane record A Few Of My Favourite Things....luv em all

he couldn't stop playing that song
every way he could play it, he played it

greensleeves too
but favorite things was an endless adventure
