Buddy Greco - The Lady Is A Tramp

[SFConifer]

Preeminent version of the Rodgers and Hart standard

[luckyanna007]

He was so talented! He was a great singer as well as a pianist.

[Featureman]

I used to see him occasionally in Las Vegas. He was always good with conversation as well as the piano and singing. A pro for sure.

Saw Buddy at Ronnies last time - great !

I used to have a recording of this Big Band arrangement on tape, but lost it.

Only versions available on iTunes are piano trio or guitar trio.

Anyone know where I can get a Big Band version?

Would also LOVE a backing track for this, if anyone knows where to get one!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

@ziggydamaestro I own a big band version of this. It's amazing. On CD somewhere, I should upload it when I get the chance.

@morbidchid

Please hurry! I can't find it anywhere!!!

[TrishBell55]

Pretty wild compared to Frank Sinatra's version..but hey like it!

[Chameleon102]

Saw Buddy yesterday at Ronnie Scotts in London. He was amazing, and was good enough to take a photo and sign a CD.

84 and still holding a room in the palm of his hand. Incredible.

@Chameleon102 Buddy will be appearing at Ronnie Scott's, again, June 14 - 16th, 2010. Buddy and Lezlie will be relocating to London, permanently, within the next two weeks.

I'd never heard of him before, but this is marvellous! Love it!

[immature4hisage]

I watched Buddy rehearse with big band at Bflo Town Casino when a kid. He came in with clothe bag over his shoulder, cool man.

Superb unreal classic!

[Drumcam]

I remember, way back when, hearing Buddy Greco claim on the "Joe Franklin Show" that Bobby Darin had stolen Buddy's "finger poppin'" routine. Buddy, it doesn't matter. You are the greatest!!! Performances like this demonstrate that fact to all.

[Gatorrock786]

Why do I feel like I should be holding a dry martini? This really swings.

[KellyGiftShop]

Whats wrong that audience? I see more excited people in the morgue! Sheeesh!

[KellyGiftShop]

Really WAY TOO COOL! Before my time (well. ..not that much). HIGH OCTANE!

[MuzzikLvr]

How cool to see Donald O'Connor introduce this awesome performance by Buddy Greco.

I've seen both of those talented gentlemen headline at the Fabulous Palm Springs Follies.

[sharona1981]

I work in community radio and one of my older colleagues introduced me to the magic of Buddy Greco. He's just amazing!

[leopoldmozart]

Ha ha!!!!!!! It's back after being censored by youtube!!!! Thank you thank you thank you for reposting this. As has been said in comments on the other renditions of Lady is a Tramp, Buddy Greco OWNS this song.

[johnbresnik]

great singer, piano player and entertainer - still going strong near Palm Springs ... one of my favorite renditions of this classic song.
