Bye Bye, Blackbird

I'll be posting a few (usually fairly short) tunes up as we go. Some solo multitrack homebrew this and that. Some long-distance musica-collabarativo. And the occasional piano/vocal jazz standard from 1926.

Here's the first tune out the gate, a piano/vocal jazz standard from 1926: "Bye bye, blackbird," written by the great Henderson and Dixon.

playtime:1 minute or so
file specs: roughly 1MB mp3
how to:right-click on the song name and choose "Save Target as..." to download the file. Or just click on the link and wait a minute or so for your player to come up. If it's jumpy, give it a sec, rewind, and play again -- that's just the file loading in.

Thanks for listening...

Nice! I wonder if you would consider doing a bird-theme for a while. Maybe next up: The Bird On Nellie's Hat, a comic gem from 1907. Check out http://www.tinfoil.com/cm-0401.htm
