I was learning OIL and listened to PM's version (El Hombre).
He leaves out the last 4 bars of the B section,
according to the RealBook. There is a bunch of melody in
those bars. I can't find any other recordings
in my collection.
Which way is this tune normally played?
With the last 4. He left that nifty cadenza off of Lazy Bird too, as
I recall.
That deceptive progression before the close are pretty critical to
the form to me. It's not that hard to graft 'em in if you've been
doing it the other way. It also keeps the ending of that and How
Insensitive a little more distinct from each another, as Joe Tex
useta say.
