Good call! I love that tune.
"My Funny Valentine" is nice to play too.
"Spain", if I feel like going hard out.

I'm gonna go left field now and say I'm digging playing in a country band. The enjoyment for me is in keeping to the genre, but making the lines as simple as I can while at the same time making them as melodic as possible. Emory Gordy Jnr (Elvis, Emmylou Harris, producer) was an absolute master at this. I'm learning a lot by listening to him.
