Hey people! It's been a loooong summer and I 've done a few more transcriptions I 'll be posting as soon as I find time to record them. Meanwhile, here's a sloppy take of "It's only a paper moon". (Too lazy to even have opening title card or end message)
Ok so this is also part of the 1949 Rome sessions (like this one I did a few months ago • Transcription of Django Reinhardt on "The ... ) which I love so dearly.
Here's the info that's out there on the net:
Django Reinhardt (g);
Stéphane Grappelli (vln);
Gianni Safred (p);
Marco Pecori (b);
Aurelio de Carolis (dm)
1949 January-February - RAI Studios, Rome
And here's some info on the song, from Wikipedia:
"It's Only a Paper Moon" is a popular song published in 1933 with music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by Yip Harburg and Billy Rose. It was originally titled "If You Believed in Me," but later went by the more popular title "It's Only a Paper Moon." The song was written for an unsuccessful 1932 Broadway play called The Great Magoo that was set in Coney Island. Claire Carleton first performed this song on December 2, 1932. It was used in the movie Take a Chance in 1933 when it was sung by June Knight and Charles "Buddy" Rogers. Paul Whiteman recorded a hit version which was released in 1933 featuring Bunny Berigan on trumpet. Another popular recording in 1933 was by Cliff Edwards.
Its lasting fame stems from recordings by popular artists during the last years of World War II, with versions by Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman (vocal by Dottie Reid).
Well, not much more to say, hope you enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments below, if you feel like it.
Vive Django!
