Memories of You is a popular song about nostalgia with lyrics written by Andy Razaf and music composed by Eubie Blake and published in 1930. The song was introduced by singer Minto Cato in the Broadway show Lew Leslie's Blackbirds of 1930. A 1930 version recorded by Louis Armstrong featuring Lionel Hampton is the first known use of the vibraphone in popular music. This version was developed from the original 1930 sheet music and features a root-based chord-blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements. We also added a few bits of left-hand rhythm to keep the music flowing! We hope you like what we did with this classic old tune!
