Check out John McLaughlin playing this on the tonight show. If you type his name it is the first video that comes up. I prefer that version a heck of a lot more.
Incredible! This was the first version of "Cherokee" I ever heard (on some kind of historical jazz TV documentary), and it was instantly a favorite. I've since listened to countless different interpretations, but this one is still the best in my book.
Sarah Vaughan is the reason I learned the words to this song, which I had only heard as an instrumental. And let me tell you, EVERYWHERE I ever sang this, it worked because most people don't know the lyrics! THANK'S SARAH!
When Ella Fitzgerald calls someone else "the world's greatest singing talent" I guess that says everything there is to be said doesn't it?
