Dee Dee Bridgewater - Doodlin

[@huggie123able]

One of the most versatile singers working today, Dee Dee could take the phone book and make it sound good! Love her!!

[@ChrisBrown-ig5ip]

Maybe so but she is singing this one for Horace Silver.

[@georgeg43]

Horace Silver died today. He left us with some of the finest jazz songs, simple beautiful and pure. This cover is the best!

[@ChrisBrown-ig5ip]

This is Dee Dee Brigewater's tribute to Horace Silver. She tells the story in the liner notes that when she contacted him about doing an album of vocal versions of his songs, he made it conditional on her using his lyrics. This is what gives the record its magic. Horace Silver also plays piano on two of the tracks. It's worth buying the CD because the sound is considerably better.

q genia se trango la trompeta jaja!

[@TheKoolkanadian]

Have you heard Sarah Vaughan's? That's the BEST I've ever heard of the song. This might be 2nd best to my ears. I do have SV's version on here. Dee Dee loves Sarah too. CHEERS!

[@georgeb.wolffsohn30]

TheKoolkanadian I go w/ LH&R on this one

[@2dasimmons]

Yes, Sarah is divine! No one compares to her voice unless it's Wintry Phipps who sings sacred songs, not standard/mainstream.

[@IRACEMABABU]

Here it's the Dee Dee version. And jazz isn't sport competition or circus... Who cares (but you) who's the best ? Doesn't mean nothing, exept it prohibits you to enjoy this wonderful version. Kuddo to Sarah and Dee Dee for providing us such beautiful music, each one with her own talent.

[@ChrisBrown-ig5ip]

@@IRACEMABABU Not only that this is a dynamite version and the lyrics are much better than the nonsense version written by Hendricks.

[@VicodinMA]

Sassy rocks! No I haven´t but I assume that it gotta be awesome for sure. Truth is that the most amazing black female singer I have ever heard names Yolanda Adams, yet she´s basically a gospel singer, I wish she did more things out of gospel... Her version of Georgia On My Mind is just on fire

Taking a long trip, packing a big grip, gonna be real hip, gotta be on time Baby is waitin', anticipatin' Gotta be matin', marriage is just fine Honney-moon-in' is for spoonin' We don't want no one to tune in While we're at play, doodlin' away Chek in our hotel, find it is real swell Where can I find that, Do not disturb sign? Stoppin' our phone calls, climbing the four walls No reservations, for us to go dine Honney-moon-in' is for spoonin' We don't want no one to tune in While we're at play, doodlin' away We just doodle all day We just doodle all night We sure like it that way We don't fuss, we don't fight Well, what more can I say? We sure doodle just right Doodlin' away We sure like it that way

Jajaja l lo

[@kenwithaK]

sarah vaughn's version though.........

[@2dasimmons]

THAT'S the definitive version!

[@leroygrayjr.2957]

The drum solo wasn't needed in this version.

[@kylealsberry8602]

I actually feel its a perfect fit🤷🏾‍♂️. The drum solo represents the “ Doodling” Shes singing about.

[@leroygrayjr.2957]

@@kylealsberry8602 , nope ! The original version didn't have a drum solo.. Doodlin is a "quiet" outlet for expressing random thoughts in artistic forms. Sarah Vaughn's version is perhaps the best one that I've heard. my thoughts

[@kylealsberry8602]

@@leroygrayjr.2957 I have the original version and no there’s no drum 🥁 solo. This version does, It’s called artist interpretation and personal experience of an original classic. Original songs go though many variations throughout its music lifetime. Bridgewater added a drum solo and for me it “Fits” Her approach to this fantastic Song, I enjoy both.🎶🎵
