Nice version of a really under-appreciated song! Where'd you get the music for this?

@rockdots

This song is in the Sheet-Music Book, "The Songs of George and Ira Gershwin Vol.2". I got it in Internet Shop. The ISBN is "0-7692-5392-X".

This is beautiful!!

Is this the original version? I want to learn this same version. I would appreciate it if you told me which one is it

A very nice reading of one of the brothers' signature songs. Thank you. What? You did "The Lorelei" too?

I love the way you play. It's very straightforward Gershwin without all of the superfluous "jazzing" up of his truly beautiful music. Thank you for playing and posting this treasure.

Yeah i know eh!! 10 times funnier, coz i'm playing everett in the school musical this year X3

Great Job! I always found it funny that if Everett married Bobbies mother that would make Bobby and Polly step brother and sister.

It's a beautiful song, but the performance is rather square and devoid of expression. Better listen to some Ella or Billie or Frank or George himself. You need to learn to swing!
