It's only a paper moon - Errol Garner by Frans de Wijs

"It's Only a Paper Moon" is a jazz classic. The music was written by Harold Arlen, the lyrics by E. Y. Harburg and Billy Rose. The song was first published in 1933.

Errol Garner gave his own spin to the song and Frans in his turn plays a beautiful version of the song accompanied by A. Valkenberg on bass and G. Dijkhuizen behind the drums.

The song was recorded during 'a midsummer night jazz party' organized to raise funds for charity, by the Lionsclub Eemland on the 19th of June 1999 in Baarn, Soest.

Heerlijk om eens iemand de juiste interpretatie van erroll te horen spelen. Alle complimenten Frans. Moet je horen en dan zou je toch zeggen dat erroll speelt. Wat een look a like.

Geweldige muziek. Erroll Garner is among the greatest. En Frans de Wijs heeft de stijl van Graner goed te pakken. Knap werk! Bedankt !
