...when I was a kid. It was my jazz coach's idea.
He gave me a fake book page with the basic chords & said come back next week with substitutions written out.
As typical, those alterations evolved & I would improvise a few verses.
I probably played it 2 years, but I don't recall if I ever played it in contests or recitals.
Very pretty tune.
