This, imo, is the best recording of "Blue Skies." Nothing will ever top a talent like Maxine Sullivan. Thanks for posting this recording. :D

I think Maxine does the best rendition of this song.

I love when she comes back in after the solos, jazzing around the clarinet. Pete Brown is the sax man on this one, soon to be replaced by Russel Procope.

Like tuliocsg said, this song is on the soudtrack of "Jose and Pilar" a beautiful documentary about Jose Saramago, Pilar, their love and their life.

Thank you for sharing this. ;)
