Nice version. He was a genius. I wonder if he wrote the band arrangement

The tune sounds like a cross between Mack the Knife and Give Me Sunshine with new lyrics tacked on. Nice job there, Tony.

Bill he seemed to be humble and worked with any and everyone. Maybe it was a collaboration with Quincy?

124 ... thank you ... I was figuring out the chords before the chart was posted, and I was thinking "Danke Shoen" ...
I also do a 'Bobby Darin' kind of arrangement to "My Darling Clementine" with modulation changes on each chorus like "Mack the Knife" and this tune ...

Thanks for the help guys and glad you enjoyed it. Col, Lead sheet is great.
I thought it perfect because so many of us play to older crowds.


Bill ... as I said in the above post, when listening to it a couple of times, and then listening to Jimmy Durante's version, I thought "Danke Shoen" chord changes, so it came to me pretty quickly ... although in what I guess would be called the bridge I did have a different progression, so the wiki chart helped me with that ...
