Some of my favorite jazz pieces, huh? I'm gonna have to try and narrow it down to maybe 5 or 6, because there's so many good songs and pieces out there. All the songs below are covers of earlier songs, except for Eartha Kitt's.

-The Charleston by Bob Wilson and his Varsity Rhythm Boys in the mid 1920's
-I've Got the World on a String by Frank Sinatra in 1953
-Almost Like Being in Love by Nat King Cole in 1953
-I Want to Be Evil by Eartha Kitt in 1953
-Mack the Knife by Bobby Darin in 1959
-Midnight in Moscow by Kenny Ball in 1961
