Written by Frank Paparelli and Dizzy Gillespie in 1942, “A Night in Tunisia" has since become a jazz standard. Charlie Parker, Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins and Victor Wooten have all performed cover renditions of the tune.

This performance of the song from The Jimmy Smith Quintet is from 1986.

Personnel:

Jon Faddis, trumpet
James Moody, alto sax
Kenny Burrell, guitar
Jimmy Smith, organ
Grady Tate, drums

That's how we grow.

Thanks!
