A twist this week!
This tune has been done in the practical standards thread, yes, and its not the "jazz tune by a jazz artist" idea we've been following...but dogletnoir has offered to make us tracks to play along with this week...so its actually, kinda sorta like playing with another member.
You could just do your own too, but he'll post the tracks here soon. And its definitely a jam session must know, as well.
Have fun!

Thanks for letting me do this, Jeff (mr. beaumont), and i promise that next time (if there IS a next time), i'll have read the rules before suggesting the tune!

Why is a tune called 'Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise' played so fast, that's what I want to know!

Just spent a week in Cm, so it's in Dm.

Lovely.

I am crazy about John Scofield:

Really fast Birelli:

Slow Chet:

It was originally a tango, of course... :-)

Slightly Off Topic but a good laugh.... :-)

Excellent, thank you

Interesting reharmonisation of Emilly:

One of my favorites: Paul Wertico (Metheny's drummer) Trio, with a young John Moulder, 1994 -- gotta listen to the end!

It's actually a really miserable, depressing song!
