benny golson - gettin' with it (album art)

Benny Golson - April in Paris (1959)

While Thelonious Monk’s rendition of this song is the most poignant and haunting of them all, this version from Golson’s high point as a player/composer, with an unbelievable backing band, reminds me of a romantically tinged late-evening stroll I took down cobblestone alleys in Barcelona after seeing him play there in 1996.
