[2] Golson's account of writing the piece is that "I wrote it in Boston at George Wein's Storyville club when I was with Dizzy Gillespie's big band.
"[3] Some sources indicate that the first recording was by Gillespie,[4] while others indicate that trumpeter Lee Morgan was first.
[7] By 1960, John S. Wilson, critic at The New York Times, had labelled the song, together with another Golson composition, "I Remember Clifford", "an established part of the jazz repertory".
[1] It has been recorded by hundreds of musicians,[8] becoming a jazz standard.
[9] Leonard Feather added lyrics, which were recorded by Anita O'Day in 1962 and later by several other prominent vocalists.
