More Info:
The first recorded version of the song to make the charts was by Hal McIntyre with vocals by Ruth Gaylor in 1945. It only appeared for one week and hit #16.
The song reemerged in the 1950s and was later performed by most of the jazz musicians and popular vocalists of the time including: Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Barbra Streisand, Bing Crosby, Miles Davis, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, Tony Bennett, Ben Webster, Buddy Rich, Anita O'Day, Mel Tormé, Sammy Davis, Jr., Big Muff and many others.
The song made it to the top of the charts when Chet Baker released a very popular and influential version (released on the album My Funny Valentine / Blue Note Records). His soft, delicate and serene delivery introduced the world to Chet Baker's singing skills (he was previously known only for his trumpeting skills, also displayed on this recording). Baker is still associated more with "My Funny Valentine" than with any other of the long list of songs he recorded.
Baker's version of the song leaves out the introductory verse and begins with the chorus ("My funny Valentine, sweet comic valentine"). As a result, many subsequent version also skip the verse. The most notable exception to this rule are songs recorded from the many performances of the musicals Babes in Arms and (in the film version) Pal Joey. (The verse is clearly a female voice speaking about her man, giving male singers an additional reason to omit it.)
The B-section, or bridge, is a good example of the quirky approach of lyricist Hart. It begins with a series of accusatory, even rude questions that one wouldn't necessarily expect in a romantic tune. It quickly apologizes for the odd questions with assurances, and then ends with the romantic sentiments of the last two verses.
Title: Five Brothers "Festive Minor" NoorderzonFestival 2007
Description: FIVE BROTHER recorded on the `noorderzonfestival met speciale guests Jan Menu bariton saxophone
"Five brothers" played Festive Minor composed by Gerry Mulligan.
recorded by vidimah NoorderzonFestival. 23 aug07.
Back from oblivian
Five Brothers is a song from the repertoire of the Gerry Mulligan/ Bob Brookmeyer Quartet.
This was one of the many quartets lead by baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan in the fifties and sixties.
The music was extremely popular and Mulligan and his people played on most of the world's greatest jazz stages.
Nowadays the music has almost completely passed into oblivion and is hardly ever played,
but the saxophonists Laurens Blinxma and bassist Bert van Erk think it is worth the effort to breathe new life
into this music and in addition have included some numbers of their own

billie holiday
Le lyrics di questo swing/blues sono di Billie Holiday ed alludono ad un'amara, disincantata esperienza.
My man don't love me
he treats me oh so mean
My man.. he don't love me
he treats me awfully
He's the lowest man
that I've ever seen
He wears high draped pants
stripes are really yellow
He wears high draped pants
stripes are really yellow
but when he starts in to love me
He's so fine and mellow
Love will make you drink and gamble
make you stay out all night long
Love will make you drink and gamble
make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things
that you know is wrong
(But if) you treat me right baby
I'll stay home everyday
just treat me right baby
and I'll stay home night and day
But you're so mean to me baby
I know you're gonna drive me away
Love is just like the faucet
it turns off and on
Love is just like the faucet
it turns off and on
sometimes when you think it's on baby
it has turned off and gone

Description: Please enjoy this is a clip about Dinah Washington which features her performing the song "Lead Baby" from the DVD "The Ladies Sing the Blues."
The exception film features a breathtaking array of performances from the ladies who not only created an art-form, but whose turn of phrase made musical history as their spectacular voices sang their way into legend.
Priceless footage of history's greatest Jazz and Blues divas (complete songs, not just tantalizing excerpts) such as Billie Holiday backed by the most extraordinary band ever formed, featuring Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Benny Webster, Roy Eldridge, and Gerry Mulligan, the great Bessie Smith in her only film appearance, Dinah Washington on stage at The Apollo Theatre, Sarah Vaughan, Lena Horne, and many, many others. This marvelous showcase of classic American talent is in many instances the artist's only performance caught on camera, and many of the selections were thought to be lost to time.
Selections include: St. Louis Blues (Bessie Smith), Darkies Never Dream (Ethel Waters), Quicksand (Ethel Waters with Count Basie & His Orchestra), Fine and Mellow (Billie Holiday with Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Ben Webster, Roy Eldridge, Gerry Mulligan), When You Lose Your Money Blues (Ida Cox with Jesse Crump), That Lonesome Road (Sister Rosetta Tharp), Nobody's Sweetheart Now (Connee Boswell), Lean Baby (Dinah Washington), Only A Moment Ago (Dinah Washington), Have A Good Time (Ruth Brown), The Man I Love (Lena Horne), Unlucky Woman (Lena Horne with Teddy Wilson & his Orchestra), You're Mine You (Sarah Vaughan), I Cried For You (Helen Humes with Count Basie & His Orchestra), Why Don't You Do Right?
