The actual chord structures, or changes, are not the same, however.darkblackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06584075324283109495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36572024.post-34261158495203870392008-11-02T19:24:00.000-07:002008-11-02T19:24:00.000-07:00p.s.

I'm not the only one. ;) db wimmen's fan girls.<BR/><BR/>but, still, I would like to know if you can hear any similarity b/t the two tunes. I really heard a lot that was similar musically in listening to the Sarah Vaughn version of "Shadow of your smile" and the first YT you posted. I listened to them, flipping back from one to the other, and apart from the last bit on each phrase, I was really struck by the similarity. Tell me I'm wrong, but I won't go easily. I have been emboldened by my blogging success. ;) ;)VGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613777253255463988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36572024.post-60177320484565043952008-11-02T18:46:00.000-07:002008-11-02T18:46:00.000-07:00VG,They are different tunes, although Woods did co...VG,<BR/><BR/>They are different tunes, although Woods did cover <I>Last Night When We Were Young</I> on a recent release (Great American Songbook II). Woods wrote <I>And When We Are Young</I> himself, and it can be found on the Japanese reissue of 'Alive and Well in Paris'.<BR/><BR/>Ah, the divine Miss Vaughan. Wonderful phrasing, there.<BR/><BR/>Shadow of Your Smile? Here's Johnny Hartman's version from 1972 with Terumasa Hino on trumpet:<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7T0j44-9S4<BR/><BR/>And of course, Lady Fitz is without peer in the field of vocal improvisation.<BR/><BR/>Two of my favorite female bloggers posting endearments today?

But, I couldn't find a clear match. Is this same tune, or not? Even if not, it's still pretty good.<BR/><BR/>Last Night When We Were Young (Frank Sinatra)<BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsnFe8NYHvk<BR/><BR/>2) And, for some reason, the first tune I thought of was "The shadow of your smile". <BR/><BR/>Haven't found a good version of that, but do you see/ hear any similarity? Uh, maybe I'm too influenced by having found a few YTs that have clips of "Songs that sound like other songs", and thus the thought.<BR/><BR/>p.s. Please don't stop with the wonderful graphix.VGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613777253255463988noreply@blogger.com
