I really love this song and this version. I'm Making Believe by Ella Fitzgerald with The Ink Spots.

You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)

Very poignant and beautifully done!

Wow, that's some really bluesy blues, isn't it? Some nice instrumental work in there, especially on clarinet.

If you dig modernist jazz, here is the great Dave Brubeck quartet with the classic “Take Five” (so called because it’s in 5/4, a very unusual time signature). Some especially nice work by Paul Desmond on alto sax and Joe Morello on drums.

1924 Rhapsody in Blue, I think this music is beyond the descriptive powers of mere mortals such as myself.

Bull Doze Blues by Henry Thomas, from 1928. Forty years later, Canned Heat would release their own version based on this recording called Going Up The Country.
