paroles de chanson Spoken Introduction 15 (Live At The Village Vanguard, New York City, NY / July 29, 1977) - Art Pepper

We'd like to welcome you, and we're recording
Unless you - if you don't know it, we are
We are recording
We recorded last night, recording tonight, and we're recording tomorrow night
We're gonna get, probably, four albums
Live At The Village Vanguard, at least four, maybe five
In three nights, so we might get five

And right now, we're gonna do a tune that I wrote
For a very, very old friend
I wrote it many, many moons ago
I wrote it in 1950, 19 and 50
Which is quite a few years ago, that's 27 years ago
But I'm gonna record it again, because I play better now
So, same arragement, and you'll see that
That it's just as modern today as it was in 1950
'Las Cuevas de Mario'

The first 5'4 jazz tune ever written
But I didn't get a dime for it, okay?
That's true, man
