“Lovely jazz - not too difficult!”

Squiffy's Song is quite lovely with a typical blues melody flowing over an enigmatic accompaniment. Enjoy!

The original full title of this number was Squiffy's Song - the Morning after the Night Before, and is dedicated to Liz Reinhardt. Liz became "bottler" for Saxtet during a tour of Germany where she acquired the nickname "Squiffy". (A bottler is someone who passes the hat round for buskers.
