Battle of the Bands Results: July Summertime Willie Nelson

 Willie Nelson defeated Billie Holiday 7 to 1 in July's Battle of the Bands over "Summertime." Honestly, I thought the Battle would be closer between the two musical giants. We celebrate winners here so sit back and enjoy some Willie Nelson.

                                                                  "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain"

"On the Road Again"

"Always on my Mind"

Hope you enjoy! I will have August's results up soon and stay tuned for a new Battle coming September 1! 

Battle of the Bands: Summertime

 Gershwin's Summertime is a standard. The last time I used this song I battled with Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. The song has been covered so often. This battle I chose two more musical giants in Willie Nelson and Billie Holiday

 

                                                      Contender One: Willie Nelson

Contender Two: Billie Holiday

In the comments let me know who you like, in a week or so I will post about the winner.

Battle of the Bands Winner: Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong

Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong won my battle of the bands competition against Billie Holiday 13 to 3. I knew whoever won this "Summertime" battle would provide some great music on my winners post.

Here they perform "Cheek to Cheek"

"Dream a Little Dream of Me"

"Learnin' the Blues"..

Do you have any favorite songs performed by Ella or Louis separate or solo? Any memories? Feel free to share in the comments. I will be back on the 15th with a Battle of the Bands marking my one year anniversary  participating in the BOTBs.
