 A long year behind us. Light at the end of the tunnel? Here's hopin'. Meanwhile, keep washing your hands, wearing a mask, and do whatever it is you gotta do to stay sane. Sometimes, a nice ballad and a belt of whiskey does the trick. "Nice Work" is typically uptempo. But I think it makes for a nice ballad, no? Say goodbye to dark days and summon brighter ones! It's not that anybody is trying to change me. Not at this point! So I think of it differently, as a reminder to myself to be true to myself. Accompanied by Jamie Saltman I first heard this sung by Dianne Reeves in George Clooney's film "Good Night, and Good Luck." Here I'm once again accompanied by Jamie Saltman. It's a simple yes or no question, your Honor! Written by the incredible jazz musician Bobby Troup (husband of singer Julie London). He also wrote Route 66. No slouch. This song was made famous by Nat "King" Cole. A rare gem of a tune. Accompanied here by Jamie Saltman. Let's go out on a high note! (a couple of 'em).
As the song says: "I'm gonna Live! Live! Live! Live! Live! ....Until I Die! Comments are closed.
