Sometimes I get a bit sentimental hearing this,
most of the times it happens listening to the versions
without the words...but that mr. Kirk version does it
even with all the words to the tune...
I included this old-time-favourite-de-moi
in some older posts as well, you can look 'em up below...

post 177
post 196
and the original Mingus tune in
post 70

BTW: some extraordinary Lester Young stuff
(inclding how to make your own pork pie hat!)
can be found at the mighty Ubu Roi...

    Mingus recorded at least 2 versions, on the albums "Ah Hum" & "Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus", where GPPH is credited as "Theme for Lester Young".

    A fine solo version is the one recorded in 1969 by John Mc Laughlin on his album "My goal's beyond"

    Dri, thanks for the feedback, I got all 3 CD's you mentioned [:-)
    For me the "classic" GPPH version is the one from Ah Um...
    @ Moi Meme: some REALLY nice versions, totally awesome, thanks a lot for sharing!

    Here are 12 more versions by Gil Evans, my heroe : mp3 only, as my hard drive is smaller than my usb key, and lowbitrate for the edited ones, as I don't like much to bootleg edited recordings. I also added the one with J. McLauglin (Ravenna 1986) you already had and a few rare & nice pics of GE.

    http://rapidshare.com/files/450464361/Goodbye_Pork_Pie_Hat_Gil_Evans.zip

    In all the versions you collected, my favorite ones are Roland Kirk's on "The Return of the 5000 db man" (like you, E-mile), the big band one of Mingus, chorused by Booker Ervin, the solo version of Mc Laughlin on "My goal's beyond" and the Gil Evans-Steve Lacy duet on "Paris Blues".

    I've found 5 more versions of Summertime I collected for friends playing the tune. I checked (a bit quickly) your incredible collection, according to the durations you mention, they could be new for you :

    John Lewis/Afternoon in Paris 1990
    Art Pepper/Modern Art 1956
    Chet Baker/My favourite songs 1988
    Charlie Parker/Bird with strings 1949
    Helen Merrill/Dream of you 1957

    I must have at least another live version by Gato Barbieri on my hard drive and I'll upload it when at home.

    I'd be very grateful if the twelve Gil Evans versions originally posted on 1 March 2011 could be made available again.

    E-mile, thanks for that. I was after Dri's Gil Evans post of 1 March (which isn't working)but find I do have them. I'm downloading Moi Meme's first post -I had missed that - but it seems that his second and third are the same, from mediafire reference, which is how I got confused!. Thanks again.
