What are your favourite standards?
What makes a standard? (Can this really be defined?)
Which is the most recorded standard that you know of?
One of my favourites is "What's New", I've so far tracked down 16 recordings on Last FM ranging from (probably the first version I recall hearing), Stan Kenton featuring Maynard Ferguson, through Mel Powell, Milt Jackson, Wes Montgomery to McCoy Tyner.
Avalon is another favourite of mine, I've yet to trawl through Last.FM for versions of that.
