“Sweet Georgia Brown” is an old blues / US forties’ swing / jazz / country / bluegrass and European Gypsy standard: always an amusing challenge because it has some speed! So even I tried myself, supported by a brave tractor friend and a Swedish flat-picking guitarist, to upload a version:
some YouTube examples, introducing different music styles:
2 – Kai Heumann and Mike Reinhardt, Gypsy Swing:
3 – Ella Fitzgerald & Duke Ellington orchestra
4 – Steve Caddick & Nathan Hanna with Avalon New England Jazz BanjoFest at the DoubleTree Hilton in Bedford, MA on 9/15/12
5 – Bjorn Thoroddsen and Tommy Emmanuel
6 – Django Reinhardt NYC Festival 2004
7 – Swedish version “med traktorkomp” uploaded by janakeragnar views (till now:) 2,114,591
8 – Oscar Peterson Trio
