Misirlu/Live with Murray Kaye Orch./Felice Kaye Cooper on Piano

Story Behind The Song

This is a live performance that was taped during a recording session featuring Murray Kaye on drums and his Orchestra. I sat in on piano for this track which was a personal request by my dad's good friend(remain anonymous)in the 1980's for the love of the song. This was the last time before my father passed that I played with his orchestra

Lyrics

N/A

I enjoyed this piece a lot............

This is a wonderful worldly song, performed to perfection. It captures the time, place and feeling of foreign lands of the world. Though it is not my particular genre, I loved listening to it all the same. This could easily be part of a major film.

Arabian? Sure sounds like it! Enticing---could see the dancing girls!

Nice version of this tune. The bolero works great.
and of course the instrumentation adds a nice flavor to it.

great for a movie sound track
