Lunchtime Jazz (18) - Paul Edis Solo


Paul Edis (piano/vocals)

Number 18! No need to go into great detail other than to check out the songs. After 17 previous streams (when does a stream become a river?) we know what to expect. A choice selection of numbers, some originals (none this week!), some standards, all impeccably played with the occasional vocal thrown in - they don't come any better than this!
I Didn't Know What Time it Was.
Let's Get Lost - famously sung by Chet Baker and, more recently, by Claire Martin with the Callum Au Big Band.
Lucky to be Me.
Aqua de Beber.
Early Autumn (some nice Shearing-esque chords).
Feelin' Good.
Too Late Now (one of the all time great ballads).
Let's Fall in Love (complete with verse).
Maybe Next Year (recorded by Art Pepper, composed Duane Tatro).
Moment's Notice.

Apologies for absence: PEAS (Saigon). Watched the show later and loved it all: special mention for - Lucky to Be Me
-Agua de Beber
-Feelin Good
-Let's Fall in Love
-Moment's Notice.
I realise I've just listed most of the show for "special mention" but these shows are like that!
All being well with Emirates Airlines, PEAS (Saigon) will be disbanded before the next show (to re-form as PEAS: Chester-le-Street)!
