The vocals on this song are phenomenal! This song was originally created by Oliver Nelson in 1961 and was all instrumental. You also must listen to the original. Beautiful composition by Oliver Nelson. Absolutely beautiful!
The instrumental original version was written by Oliver Nelson in 1960-61 & 25 years later words were added to this 'milestone jazz hit'!! Like Herbie Hancock's Butterfly in 1974 & in the early eighties lyrics were added!!
My favorite American Music (Jazz) Vocal Group and it is obvious that they know their stuff and work very hard at it to perfection. Their arrangements are impeccable especially as heard in the 1991 GRP "I Wonder as I Wander" recording that is one of the few tunes (besides this one) that hits my resonate frequency and shakes me to tears. As a Jazz woodwind player, that has sung in the past I wish I could use my voice like they do to sound like musical instruments. God created human's with a voice to sing praise to Him. They do it the best I have heard today. There have been many such great musicians that can sing this way. New York Voices echo all of these great musicians of the past but with a new twist and always exciting.
@@adoris864so I must be a racist ......and so is this group for no affirmative action representation. I suppose and know the great Ella did scat as a solo act primarily. This group is a one off. Pity such a nobody as you are feels the need to display your complete failure and self hatred for all to see.

The best vocal (jazz) group, ever. And this performance proves it.

pure magic....wow
Surely one of the finest bass solos I've ever heard - would have appreciated a credit.
Agree, would love to know who he is
Randy Landau
I wish that Caprice Fox was still with the ensemble. She had quite the voice...
Good Lord!
Now that's how I want it!!

That tenor is 🔥 🔥 🔥! Boy, can he scat!!!
Mi canción favorita....Amo a New York Voices!!! Amo ese arreglo, amo su interpretación!!!!!!
Fablous vocals and backing band..
Damn good! Just phenomenal.
It's just SO GOOD.
a great rendition of this timeless classic....fantastic scat!!!!
My absolute favorite.
This is ORGANIC JAZZ via vocals second-to-none.
Lohvissimo!
The always awesome Caprice Fox and Sara Kreiger on vocals. Laura Kinhan came on board in 1993, and NYV didn't miss a beat.
Dang! I never knew this great song had even better lyrics!
Me either! Did they have lyrics from the get?
The lyrics are from Mark Murphy!
The LAHS vocal group. High school group left a version much the same on you tube. LAHSCA?
Outstanding!!!!!
❤️🎼🎤🎹🥁💋Scatastic😔
That's a look you should bring back, Darmon! But sounding great then and now!
Like the sound.
Seems a very difficult piece to pull off live. This group of extra talented voices ( instruments ) , cant be rivaled. Just great!
They CAN be rivaled. Obviously you've never heard of the great Ella Fitzgerald.

Bravi
0:32 I've always wondered if the tenor accidentally stepped on the soprano's toe?
Zappa performed this on Broadway...

Andy Ezrin
