I only recently ran upon Andy Bey. It's great hearing different interpretations of the same song. Thanks again. I only recently ran upon Andy Bey.

It has become my favorite. Imagine my joy and delight to discover 14 different versions on BOL. Although I initially heard this haunting melody from a Marissa Tomei film, "The Perez Family," I had not made the connection to Andy Bey's interpretation, which I purchased a few years after seeing the movie, until hearing it hear. How weird is that. And I consider myself such a music buff. Not paying attention here. Humbling isn't it? I love all the featured versions and particularly think that Barretto's is a creative wonder. It would be nice to get 14 on one disc. Any suggestions? I adore this melody. It has become my favorite. Imagine my joy and delight to discover 14 different versions on BOL.
