  • Paul is German, so he's not singing it as a native English speaker would. But, musically, his piano work is among the best and he's backed by a first class rhythm section and fantastic tenor player.

  • it doesnt matter that his singing is best. His jazz piano is marvelous and does this song great tribute. nice jazz version.

  • @gromitmcgorcdnbmzsty put your version on youtube and let us compare

  • I don't like this version at all... this singer can't sing at all.. I prefer nat king cole's version.

  • @spacepatrolman there was an article in the paper nelson riddles daughter put out a cd by him cross country suite they werent sure if they were going to sell enough copys to break even but they did it just for the love of doing it

  • @johnbresnik yes i like those 50s shows like space patrol and rocky jones captain video made an appearance at a shopping mall when i was there nelson riddle went to high school in the next town i have the sheet music to the untouchables and the album i talked to a musician was it in here or myspace who worked with riddle and went out to dinner with him

  • @spacepatrolman - I was a professional musician for nine years - played jazz in a lot of bands in LA and Germany. I've never heard a band cover Riddle's version -- but, every band under the sun has Troup's original version on their playlist. I can see that you're a Riddle fan, but Troup's version has been the most popular, by far. Just curious -- is the "spacepatrolman" a reference to the Space Patrol TV series in the 50s? That was my absolute favorite program as a kid.

  • @johnbresnik Right it was riddles own original melody thats why they put his plaque on the wall in the songwriters hall of fame

  • den habi ch^^ <3 und das bild als facebook profielbild^^

  • @Baileygeep7 - Nelson Riddle didn't do a version of Bobby Troup's "Route 66"...
