Episode 282: Cole Porter and Jazz, Part 2

N/A • 14 augusti 2024

Saxophone legend Charlie Parker's last recording session was an album of Cole Porter tunes. I start this episode with two tracks from that great album.

Other great players playing Cole Porter tunes include Dizzy Gillespie, Matthew Shipp, Toronto guitarist Jocelyn Gould, and trumpeter Tom Harrell. Harrell plays with singer Mark Murphy and their dramatic rendition of a song that is already dramatic thanks to its natural arc is probably the highlight of this episode.

Other great singers I play today include Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin, Eartha Kitt, Julie London, Peggy Lee, and the Susie Arioli Swing Band.
