Laura, written by Johnny Mercer. Probably one of the best songs ever written. Then there's On Green Dolphin Street, Take the A Train, Cherokee, Skylark, When Sunny Gets Blue, The Shadow of Your Smile. There's a bunch of them. And the hits keep on rollin' !

My favorite jazz song is In the Mood by Glenn Miller Orchestra.
