This is a beautiful tune….and the words to it are also beautiful….When I play it the words of the song are in my playing…..love what you are doing Tony.
such a great tune. I used ellas version in my latest skateboard video, and have been playing it a lot more on piano. I like that little reharm to the AbM7
Love the concept of voicing a chord. May I say a clean sounding chord compare to a much more muddle up sound when too man notes in a chord. Should it be safe to say almost any interesting chord could suffix with 5 notes in a open chord manner?
Weighting the notes takes quite a bit of time to settle in properly. It seems to happen naturally over time as you play the tune over and over again. You have to listen to your own playing. Actually if you play the tune with no more than 3 notes in any chord at a time, it will help you figure out the most important notes in any given chord. I'm not talking about simple plain triads, but altered chords played with just three notes.
Great Video Tony! As you said I haven't thought much about volume of notes (except top note occasionally) But, in the very few Bill Evans transcriptions Ive seen, he seems to hit the top and bottom notes(pinkies) alone than fill in the middle LH and RH an 8th not after, some times all together and some times does really nice syncopations L and R. thank you again
ah did not know the name of tune but familiar. I guess the clifford brown version is most familiar to me. I have Wynton Kelly trio smokin at the halfnote on playlist too. I looked it up and I liked Dexter Gordons version. My father did time with him I guess.

Nice reharms of the reharm on a tune I have heard but never played.

Tony the Great teacher.He conveys extraordinary emotion and vast knowledge.Thank you
Wow, thank you
Hi Tony, I. just discovered your website. You are a remarkable teacher! Thanks for your time and effort.

Diana Shaw and Linda Ronstadt both made this tune so haunting so I delighted you parsed the tune and help us to how to play this tune.
Haunting? Check out Billie singing it too.

Yes. The current trend is to really thick chords, sometimes too thick. Especially on an electric piano - Rhodes sound the smaller chords work better
Voicing! Yeah, Tony!
I wish I could play jazz and blues like you....thanks
