David Raskin's Composition "Laura" (From the 1945 Film of the same name)

[FedoraGent]

Folks,

For quite some time I have fancied the song "Laura". David Raskin wrote the composition and Johnny Mercer wrote the lyrics. I have 8 renditions (of the song and I find that Charlie Parker's is the best. Would anyone have an opinion on what was the best rendition?

I was just curious, so please vote. I'm interested to know.

FG.

Off the top of my head I would say thet Woody Herman's is my fave but I might have to listen to all of them again.

Sincerely,
The Wolf
