I had already 'spoken of this ballad, as the eternal live album by Stan Getz, bassist by the more' lyrical history of Jazz music has ever seen Charlie Haden, a very vital and singable melody, poignant version of Stan Will Getz accompanied by Kenny Barron People Time in the disc. There are a couple of days I can not remove it from the head, those steps that hurt from highest to lowest, a song as simple as it is difficult to make, and 'still very far away from my ability' of interpretation, I play it for some time, we turn around and every time I am amazed at how much beauty is contained in the essential and profound passages of melody, and how many possibilities' interpretation of it there.
