Tenderly - Lucky Thompson

One of the most beautiful renderings of a classic jazz standard by one of the most creative and under-appreciated jazz talents of the 20th century. Mr. Eli “Lucky“ Thompson spent much of his musical life flying under the radar, but the depth of emotion in his playing was ever present, especially on ballads such as this one. Recorded in 1956, this video pays tribute to the late Mr. Thompson and a bit of homage to the city of Paris.
