- Another song with Michelle Benjamin - 'Almost Blue' - a great song by Elvis Costello, 'covered' by a number of singers, including Diana Krall - his wife!
This is an interesting song - unusual in form perhaps.
For those who are just interested in the great singing of Michelle, please ignore all of the comments added - they are intended for piano players and may not make a lot of sense to others.
There is an excellent quality video and also a midi file that can be downloaded (free) from my website at
www.bushgrafts.com
and on my DVD (details on the website) is also the transcription of the piano accompaniment. The transcription is also available for separate purchase at $1.20 - details at www.bushgrafts....
I had to scroll through paaaaages to try and track down this version again. It had stuck in my head. Absolutely lovely vocals and arrangement. Thank you.
Gorgeous...
Wow, wow the both of you - beautiful - should be mainstream instead of the computerised rubbish we have now. You the singer - what a gift!! ❤️😁🌞
Simply gorgeous! Beautiful rendition
Beautiful!
Wonderful, and what an amazing voice....
Great interpretation.
Great interpretation to the song, LOVE the vocals
Bravo!
I tended bar in a jazz club and heard scores of singers and instrumentalists. I appreciate his open style of playing that creates an opening for her voice to shine. She has gorgeous tone and pitch, with bright enunciation that makes for a fresh delivery in this era of yodeling (vocal gymnastics) that do nothing to enhance THE SONG.
Stunning!
You people are great!
Thanks for everything you're doing
and greetings from Croatia.

Hi Doug, do you have allready made a CD with Michelle Benjamin? If not, I think that is already a very long time to make one.
Love it! * * * * *

Elvis Costello Wrote it!

I am sure you are mistaken - Chet Baker covered it - but Elvis Costello wrote it! Google 'Almost Blue Elvis Costello Chet Baker'
