Video: George Van Eps and Howard Alden - Night and Day

This is probably my favorite Cole Porter song. The Father of Seven String Guitar, George Van Eps, and his protege, Howard Alden, do a fine job of playing it live. I think Mr Van Eps will always be hero to me. What genius.

This footage of George Van Eps and Howard Alden was taken at a concert in Schorndorf, Germany in October 1993. Bob Haggart (the composer of "What's New") is on upright bass and Butch Miles, long-time Count Basie drummer, is on the drum kit. Enjoy!
