I used this as the basis for learning the song, particularly the intro, and farted around with it without much conviction for months. Then found another version that I switched to while retaining your intro. Now going back and listening after some months, can appreciate the subtle artistry of this version. It's all good, and shut in with the Covid 19 lockdown, am making real progress. Such a pleasure to play and I never tire of this classic!
I have watched a lot of jazz piano stuff on RUclips, as a rank amateur trying to learn how to work things out for myself. I find Tony W's videos among the few that I really learn from. Great style, really helpful, thank you very much.
Beautiful tutorial! Love your unpretentious and straight-to-the-point style. You let the quality of your musicianship speak for itself. It's not dismissive at all, it's about remaining humble. That's rare and I love it!
I thank you kindly for sharing this Sir. I been looking for that intro all over town. Your a great teacher, and even greater human being, you have a beautiful spirit and heart and it comes thru. Pls continue sharing your fantastic work. Best regards- Al
I just found your channel, and I am absolutely blown away! Thank you for this content. I am an 'okay' piano player. I know a fair bit of music theory and have intermediate skills, but thanks to your videos and the tension charts you've uploaded, my piano playing is really getting to that next level. Also, you look a bit like Brian Cranston in this video!
Thank you for the clear instruction and for the lead sheets, as this tune is not in my fake book. Your teaching style continues to inspire me to practice daily. I've learned so much in the past months since finding your site, and look forward to more of your instructional videos. Cheers.
Thank you so much for including the chords, especially in the intro. I was really having trouble finding them. I'm trying to adapt this song to ukulele :P. This made a lot of sense, thank you thank you thank you.
Thanks for the explanation, you are always very clear. If you feel like doing a video on improvisation for stolen moments I would be extremely grateful..
Tony Winston Great ! I 'm looking forward to that ! If possible with rootless voicings.. I've been persuaded to take an exam and roots are frowned upon ( I'll be accompanied by a bass and drums).
Leave out the B. I think the chord is from the Nat Cole arrangement. E7 is an alternate to C7 moving back to the tonic F so if you don't like E7, try C7.
@@TonyWinston I have the sheet music with the picture of Natalie Cole. It names the album, and even says "As performed .. duet with her father ..." but it is *nowhere near the actual music or key of the actual duet.* It is in "G". Of course the actual music starts on "F" not "G". Why would they claim "As performed by ..." when they don't even use the correct key? (It does get that part "first time being flat, the next time natural" correct.)

Unforgettable Unforgettable! Beautiful tune and I love/d Nat King Cole, what a voice and what a piano player. Definitely included on the list!

Thank you Tony❤
Excellent,thank you for upload.
Thanks For subscribing and the kind comments
At 2:35 you said "Bm7" but played B F A D E which has F not F#.
Busted! It is Bm7b5
@@TonyWinston Actually, I myself think the F# sounds better like this: F# A C E
E7 sharp 9 (fourth line) sounds a little weird to me. is that the correct chord? I am using E G# B D and G for the sharpened 9th.
Leave out the B. I think the chord is from the Nat Cole arrangement. E7 is an alternate to C7 moving back to the tonic F so if you don't like E7, try C7.
Hi barry, I use the Dom7+, ( in this case I used E7+.... tell me if ya thought it worked? maybe.... thought that 7#9 was kinda weird too.
Tkanks for your help
Thanks master for opportunity !
What is "The Book"?
I don't know... can you be more specific?
You kept talking about "The Book" in the video, like "the book says that but I play this instead".
The chart in G in the description is from The New Real Book 2. That is the book I'm referring to. Just hit the link and view or print the chart.
