THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK

GEORGE GERSHWIN

COLEMAN HAWKINS: “THE MAN I LOVE”

One of the things that makes a particular song a candidate for the Great American Songbook is its ability to provoke different jazz interpretations. This recording is from 1943, and there is no attempt to play it slowly as a ballad. Hawkins and some of the best jazz musicians of the day really let it swing. The piano and bass passages for openers are wonderful, but when Hawkins lets loose, what a session!
