Don't Get Around Much Anymore

My first idea of Duke Ellington was the Chicago cover of this tune. So, I have incorporated my less-than classic approach with that of a standard approach to this tune. Hope you enjoy!

Chris, This is a new song to me. I have not heard it but it is a pretty song. I give U 5 *****. Did I read in one of your comments that playing the PIANO was your life? How long have U been playing? Do U play by note mostly or some by ear?

Thanks. It's a popular Duke Ellington tune. I'm 26, been playing since I was 3 or 4. I learned to play by ear and then had really really wonderful classical training, and then I use my ear, but I read music exceptionally well.

this is seriously amazing. You have really inspired me! Ive been playing the piano for about ten years, mostly classical training. Just about 3 years ago i was opened up to playing jazz, and i love your style of playing, its really sweet!!! You've sorta incorporated rag tunes in with this jazz solid, and its really outstanding!
