In the 70's I heard a jazz version of Moon River based over the bass line from Killer Joe. Who wrote it?
I heard a college band play it, but I'm sure it was a stock arrangement and it was too sweet. Does anyone know who arranged it and/or if it is recorded anywhere. It swung very hard!
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Darcy, I'm sorry but I'm going to say no winner. I really did want to find this song... It's haunted me for years. Thanks for the try!
Thanks for the trying, but none of them are it. Though I did like the fist two versions. Thanks Darcy!
