Tommy Flanagan is one of those unsung Jazz heroes I like to blog about. He turns up on a lot of my favorite albums, behind such greats as John Coltrane and Kenny Burrell. At least one of the recordings where he was the leader got repackaged under the name of the former, more famous jazzemen. But Flanagan was the real thing, right down to the bones. Here is a clip from DailyMotion of Flangan with Ella Fiztgerald, singing How High the Moon. It's short and sweet enough to make your day.
