'bout a year ago I was doing some work on the Film version of Porgy and Bess for the Gershwin foundation and the archivist and I were talkin' about how Summertime has to be one of the 3 or 4 most recorded works. Despite that fact the original broadway version and the film version are fairly weak compared to most of the sides out there ...
A few more versions for your consideration ..
"In These Times" dub -Upsetters
"In these Times " - Errol Walker
Etta James
Stan Getz
Miles Davis
Art Pepper
Lou Donaldson
Lou Armstrong
Lena Horne
Wes Montgomery
Is Summertime the definitive "standard"? and who was the first to cover it ...
