Question
Tom Cleary claimed this song’s opening represents three stages of its original performer’s career, citing its references to his early collaborators Sir Charles Thompson and Jay McShann. The Amazing Bud Powell, Volume 1 follows “Over the Rainbow” with this song co-credited to Little Benny Harris. Like Tristano's “Lennie-Bird,” this instrumental opens with two bars of G major 7 followed by ii-V-I's (“two-five-ones”) in F major and E-flat major. The scat solo on the closing track of Ella in Berlin quotes this song's eighth-note melody, which begins “pickup (*) D, G, A, B, C, D.” The popularizer of this contrafact of Morgan Lewis' “How High the Moon” also performed a song whose title begins with “Craze-” and a composition co-credited to Dizzy Gillespie that share the same five-letter suffix. For 10 points, name this Charlie Parker standard punningly titled for a branch of zoology. ■END■
