We'd like to play a composition by
the great bebop composer
Tad
Dameron, the
original recording by
Tad
Dameron on piano and
John
Coltrane on tenor
saxophone.
We take the version
that I heard by the late
Chet
Baker, also with
George
Coleman on tenor saxophone.
There was no text to this
beautiful melody,
there is now.
Text is mine.
And also the little short solo that
Chet played on
his trumpet,
I wrote some text for that.
It's a beautiful unsung song of jazz
entitled
On a

While we see you on the face
I know that love was born
from a mourner's bliss
With you on this misty night
It's clear that this must be right
Right here on this misty road
I'll see you around midnight
Look at me I'm a silver scissor
kitten up the street
Thank you for
Chet
Dameron,
Chet
