Sunday Morning Serenade

Stephanie DeLange, the daughter of songwriter / Bandleader Eddie DeLange, stopped by the site this past week.  In my search for John Bartee, I keep crossing paths with others who open my life to the Music of really talented individuals.  Eddie wrote some really poetic lyrics during his career and, like so many gifted individuals, ended too soon.

Check out some of his work and the artists he worked with on his great website.  Even though he died in 1949, his Music is timeless, with thoughts & feelings that serenade the listener.

I felt this tune, which he composed with Duke Ellington, In My Solitude, fit this Sunday Morning Serenade.

                                                                                                    Thanks,  Eddie
