    Ahmad Jamal's trio has a recording of this tune. In the early days he used Ray Crawford on guitar but in later years he was replaced by Vernel Fournier on drums and I know there is a recording with him. However, I found this CD:

    Amazon.com: Poinciana: Ahmad Jamal: Music

    I can't listen to the sound sample here in the library, but it says Crawford is on guitar.
    Barney Kessel was asked, “What’s the hardest thing about studio work?” He replied, “Finding a parking place.”

    Thank you all for the clips & suggestons. paynow & jonasfixe, I have those Ahmad Jamal albums as well. Very nice versions but I want something w/more guitar.
    I did fing a Jimmy Bruno version in G on iTunes. It's pretty good.

    Ok, check out these guys. Watch James Cammack (bass), Idris Muhammad (drums) at 3:15 when Ahmad hangs on that chord a little longer than usual. lol!!!
