Heard on Drums. This came from Mr. Quebec’s azurially urbane album: Blue Harlem. “Baby, You Should Know It,” was composed by our Natal Notable Bob Dorough and Ben Tucker, and this version is sung and played on Piano by Mr. Dorough on his 1966 labial LP: Just About Everything, with Al Schackman on Electric Guitar, Mr. Tucker on Bass and Percy Brice on Drums. “Later Team” comes from our Birthday Boy Pete Rugolo and His Orchestra on their 1956 recording today called Adventures in Sound, spotlighting the talents of Russ Freeman on Piano, Herbie Harper on Trombone Joe Mondragon on Bass and Shelley Manne on Drums. “Look for the Silver Lining,” composed by Jerome Kern and Buddy DeSylva from the 1919 Broadway show: Zip, Goes a Million, comes from our Birthday Celebrant on his reliquarious retrospective: The Best of Chet Baker Sings, recorded in 1954 with Mr. Baker also on Trumpet, Russ Freeman again on Piano, Carson Smith on Bass and Bob Neel on Drums. “Moanin' (Version 2)” is the jazz classic created by our Natal Numinary Bobby Timmons, who also appears on Piano on this 1959 landmark LP by Quincy Jones, called The Birth of a Band – Complete Edition, featuring among the large assembly of all-star musicians Clark Terry on Trumpet, arranged and conducted by Mr. Jones, who was 26 years old at the time. “They Can't Take That Away from Me,” the classic composed by George & Ira Gershwin for the 1937 Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers movie: Shall We Dance, was sung by our December Natal Notable Sammy Davis Jr. on his 1963 righteous recording, A Treasury of Golden Hits, arranged and conducted by Morty Stevens. I would like to dedicate this to my wife Elinor in honor of our upcoming anniversary. “I Wish I Knew,” also composed by our Birthday Boy Harry Warren with lyrics by Mack Gordon for the 1945 Broadway musical: Billy Rose's Diamond Horseshoe, appears on Tenor Sax Genius John Coltrane’s 1963 unexpected effort titled: Ballads, with his quartet, which featured another December Natal Notable McCoy Tyner on this tongue-in-cheek Liberace-like Piano performance, along with Jimmy Garrison on Bass and Elvin Jones on Drums.
