    Reminds me of an anniversary celebration at a Melbourne jazz club where I had one too many martinis. Great job Irene. If I only had a brain I would have known 4 is too many.

      Hi Barask! Yes, 4 martinis will do that to you :)

    Great arrangement of that old beauty Irene. Nicely done, easy rolling great lyrics. Might memorize it and see if I can sing along. Stay well.

      Ciao Don, really happy that you like it. This song is a masterpiece and I love the way that Ray Bolger sings it. What a classic!

      Thanks Irene - a masterpiece? Didn't realize how great it is in its simplicity. It's a cheery blues song I think. The last stanza really grabbed me:
      I would not be just a muffin',
      My head all full of stuffin',
      My heart all full of pain;
      And perhaps I'd deserve you and be
      Even worthy of you
      If I only had a brain.
      Wow.

      Hi Marine! Thanks for watching my videos. Yes, we like to spice things up a bit in my quartet and keep things very jazzy so it definitely does have some chord substitutions compared to the original "Wizard Of Oz" recording :) Irene x
