I thought about playing some while I was at the gym, but it's not exactly workout music. (Not for me anyway) :D

[no name no slogan]

15. LOL!

Yeah, I could see that not working real well for a workout! Kind of like putting on "Bitches Brew" for a make-out session. Just ain't working.

Saw him with a big band, Jones-Lewis, I think. Very approachable nice guy. Like an old hippie.

58. ROFL!

I think you're off your head! I did used to have a friend who thought that all songs could be reduced to "Chameleon" by Herbie Hancock though...

[immoderate]

59. Usually it's "I Got Rhythm" (Gershwin)

--IMM

[AlGore-08.com]

61. Hi ProgMom: Can you play anything by George Gershwin

"Who Cares?" would be my preference, but anything Gershwin would be appreciated.

Thanks! :hi:

[progmom]

62. hahahahaha - i played who cares an hour ago

:hi:

[AlGore-08.com]

64. Who's version?

Also... I may be wrong, but I think the bros. Gershwin may have wrote another song. Or two... :hi:

[progmom]

72. pianist Bill Charlap

yes...i am aware that those gershwin boys wrote bunches of songs. i ran out of time today to fill your request, though. i am sorry.

[AlGore-08.com]

76. No problem! I liked the monkey songs very much

eom

[immoderate]

66. Have you heard...

"Rhapsody In Blue" by Duke Elington?

It's on an album called "Recollections of the Big Band Era" where Ellington band plays all the theme songs from the great big bands.
