Some more great recordings of (mostly) tunes that I've discovered from Chuck Sher's "Standards Real Book". They include (not in order):

  1. On a Clear Day You Can See Forever (played by Howard Roberts and crew)
  2. Hey There (a beautiful version by pianist Tommy Banks and singer Big Miller---both from Edmonton)
  3. If I Should Lose You (a lovely standard played and sung by Sweden's Ellas Kapell...featuring the amazing guitar of Manne Skavenstedt)
  4. Wheelers and Dealers (a very timely Dave Frishberg song, here sung by Kelly Eisenhour with Bob Minter on sax)
  5. (not in standards real book) Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn Medly, played by Greg Burrows big band (Ed Bonoff arrangement).
  6. Christmas Time Is Here (yeah I know its not yet), played by guitarist Mike Rud with pianist John Stetch.
  7. The Man I Love (What a version by Don Shirley....and his trio of cello and bass. ten minutes long, and never boring!)
  8. Sunny, written by Bobby Hebb. Here played by Oscar Peterson on hammond organ, with Joe Pass and Ray Brown
  9. Meditation, by the composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim, with vocal by Frank Sinatra).
  10. That Sunday That Summer, played by pianist Beegie Adair and her trio.
  11. Red Clay, by Freddie Hubbard...here played by The Ed Vedzinho Hiptet. (how many in a hiptet? Answer: as many as you want)
