Sounds very Judy Garlandesque. THANK YOU for staying true to the original vocal octave jump and for playing the original key. It matters. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
As wonderful as you would expect. BUT... Russell Hall!!... man, that is sheer genius on that bass. Listen again... to just how his bass magic propels this performance into the stratosphere. RH, you rock. ❤☮
Emmet played such beautiful changes during the intro! He just seems to have beautiful music pour out from his fingers. . Yes, his comping during the great vocal is also so tasteful. I think having about anybody sing with Emmet and trio behind them, they would have to sing...........beautiful! I was hooked on Emmet when I watched the great video he did with Benny Benack and Gabrielle. I have been a huge fan of anybody Emmet hangs with on Monday night. As a former bass player, I also enjoy Russell and Phillip Norris! Thank you Emmet for sharing your huge talent for all of us to enjoy!
