Description
Well-known tune played here by the composer himself. I like the way he played this. Strayhorn is known mostly as a composer, but as well as he plays, one has to wonder why he didnt play and record more.
UMMG is the acronym for "Upper Manhattan Medical Group", which Duke Ellington's doctor (Arthur Logan) belonged to.
