    Default I Loves You Porgy - George Gershwin

    I Loves You Porgy - Reharm

    This reharm incorporates more of Gershwin's original changes than the version in Jazz 1300, and adds some of my own.

    It also eliminates one bar at the end of the bridge, which I feel would be just dead air in a jazz performance.

    I Loves You Porgy Rev - George Gershwin

    Cheers.

    Default I Loves You Porgy, two versions by Bill Evans

    Here are two Bill Evans versions of I Loves You Porgy.

    There seem several (or many?) versions of this song, even for melody and length,
    And Bill Evans performed it differently in his albums.

    Here, the one chart is a trio version from Waltz For Debby album.
    The other, solo piano version from Live At The Montreux Jazz Festival album,
    which was acturally performed with tempo rubato.

    Because the changes and bass lines slightly alters in every chorus on both versions,
    the chart cannot cover all variations.

    Both are beautiful anyway...
