Great to see this singular performance of this classic MF tune close to the time it was released. The original certainly swings more then this tepid big band version but it’s great to see him get the royal treatment on the TV screen -thanks for posting
"Maybe it's the way she grates her cheese or just the freckles on her knees maybe it's the scallions; maybe she's Italian." Franks is simply the best, genius songwriter🤗
Sometimes his timing (vocals) is a little off. Only on live performances, never on albums. I guess that makes it more musically interesting!? Miles Davis talked about how Frank Sinatra’s phrasing/ timing/ rhythm had inspired him when to be on time, and more important, when and how to be off for fractions of a second.
Other than her cute little bouncey moves, I do not care for this version of the song. I don't like the shrill type way she sings it and the big difference in the cadence. Totally changes what made this such a good song. That's the trouble with live versions at times when they alter the songs so much 😢

Alhamdulillah...thanks to you for posting this MF video, keep posting sir....may Allah bless you, amiiin
Alhamdulillah. Terima kasih sudah mengunggah video ini. Michael Franks penyanyi jazz terbaik.
Magnifique avec cet orchestre philarmonique qui l'accompagne.
Mr. Franks did an interview with Gilles Peterson not too long ago, he's still in fine form and didn't rule out a first UK tour 🙏
Incredible. Do you know any album similar to the art of tea?
Very nice big band version of this Michael Franks gem, thanks for sharing.

I'll always love this song but never had any eggplant real talk lol
Happy birthday Michael franks
Thank you Tim,great version
Amazing. As a dutch citizen, this makes me pretty proud :)
Brings back wonderful memories........
Thank you for sharing!!
Darn ! Sorry i was commenting on the previous song by Maria Muldaur and it switched on me... No complaints about the great Michael Franks !
Many thanks for uploading this fabulous rendition. (Such a shame that Michael Franks only performed sporadically in Europe.)
Thanks for the upload, Tim! Have been a huge fan of MF since the seventies. Never knew of this recording on Dutch television.
Great chart with the full band behind him. Nice wind and string parts.
Thanks for posting.
Cute❤

Rancak Bana.. legend.. 👍👍👍
Wonderful!
Great song, just discovered Mr. Franks recently, but i prefer the studio version with Joe Sample on fender rhodes ;)
Classic Michael Franks but I can see and hear Jason Mraz here :)
I thought i was the only one lol
come onnnnnnnn....... there's more!!!!!!
Michael did only 2 songs in this program
@@timjazznlterbals6629 by any chance you know of his interview/performance on Ramesey Lewis "Legends of JAzz"?
Not Michaels usual backup but it sounds great
"Maybe it's the scallions. Maybe she's Italian."
My ex-husband's nickname was Eggplant. And no, Franks did not write this tune for him. LOL!
Anyone know the date/title of this show? Or have a link for the full show?
Egg plant is her game love it but never eaten any eggs plant real talk
Perfect English like Sinatra...
Frank Sinatra has nothing on mr. Frank's!❤️
Sometimes I have it raw … with mayonnaise.
Geokinda
@@nikitaw1982 La Gioconda is the Italian name for Mona Lisa, which MF refers to in more than one song.
giaconda=Italian for Mona Lisa
Moon shaped sandwiches....
Is he singing about cooking eggplant or sex ?
Both
@@Andy-fh4gp 🙂
NEVER have sex raw with mayonnaise
Geokinda
Why does it seems to me this guy may have influenced Buble a tad bit?
