"All Of Me"
A little bit Eric Clapton (with Paul McCartney), a dab of Louis Armstrong, and mostly Billy Holliday.
Armstrong's version has once of the verse, chorus and extended soloing; Clapton's repeats
the chorus after the first solo section, followed by another solo and ends repeating
the chorus. Holliday's version has only one verse after the soloing, in which she changes
the last two lines (following the ABAC structure). What I offer here is a merger
of the two, with solo sections of my own creation.
Ella Fitzgerald's version has an extended scat solo, followed by the last line and ending with scat.
Other versions include Frank Sinatra's and Willie Nelson's. Thus, as a standard, other permutations based
on other versions is likely.
