NO SWEETER SONG (based on THERE IS NO GREATER LOVE)
There may not a be a more versatile tune than this in the world of jazz. Known almost exclusively as a ballad tune for almost four decades, you can now find recorded versions in multiple feels and at a wide range of tempos from slow to cookin’! This tune is again very popular with instrumentalists and vocalists, and its very challenging "A" section harmony gives way to a more recognizable minor ii/V movement during the bridge. Our contrafact features alternating grooves during the first few bars, giving way to an up swing feel.
