Battle of the Bands Results: Who's Sweet Way

The combination of a jazz standard performed by two greats produced a close Battle of the Bands. The tune was Dave Brubeck's "In Your Own Sweet Way." I pitted the legendary Miles Davis against guitar great Wes Montgomery.  Wes Montgomery won the battle 3 to 2. 

As always we celebrate winners!

                                                               "Round Midnight"

"Windy"

"Twisted Blues"

I hope you enjoyed this Battle and I invite you to come back for my next Battle of the Bands on March 15th.

Battle of the Bands: In Your Own Sweet Way

 Welcome to my Battle of the Bands! My battles are going in it's own sweet way hanging out in jazz land.  Much like the last battle I have a jazz standard by a jazz giant and my contestants include one of the best jazz guitarists versus another jazz giant. 

The song I picked is "In Your Own Sweet Way" by Dave Brubeck

Next I am going to have two contenders Miles Davis and Wes Montgomery compete with their versions. In the comments you drop me a line and tell me which one you liked better. I count them up after a week or so and announce the winner in a new post.

                                              Contender One: Miles Davis

Contender Two: Wes Montgomery

Battle of the Bands Results: 500 Miles High and Five Votes

 Chick Corea's death provided the extra motivation to change things up a bit on my Battle of the Bands. His song "500 Miles High" was chosen. The Manhattan Transfer and Joe Pass were the contenders. The Manhattan Transfer got the first vote. The next four went to Joe Pass, who won 4 to 1.

On this post I usually celebrate winners. So let's get started!

                                                "Ain't Misbehavin"

"Stella by Starlight"

"Misty"

Thanks for visiting! If you voted thank you! If you didn't vote on my next Battle of the Bands coming up on the first. I'll use the next 5 to 6 days to hopefully think of something.
