Paul Desmond

I've never been a major fan of Paul Desmond, but he always had a smooth style one could not help but love. My appreciation of Lester Young and now, a recent obsession with standards, has led me to pursue jazz legends I am less familiar with. "Everything Happens To Me" is on the list of beautiful standards.

Brubeck's Jeepers Creepers

I've been listening to this old standard incessantly for the last 24 hours, and never realized that Brubeck recorded it live! A silly song like this is really better with the lyrics, however.
