Can't Help Falling in Love With You, was written by Weiss, Peretti and Creatore. Here it is performed in a swing-tempo, solo-cocktail style. Notice the blues flavor which permeates this rendition. This is an excellent example of how a non-blues can be made bluesy by playing blues licks over the regular changes. For example, in bar 1, the B is preceded by a Bb. In bar 4, instead of playing D7 for a whole bar, an A 13 chord proceeds the D7. There are more of these harmonic re-harmonizations through-out the tune. Gene Harris, Dave Brubeck, Dick Hyman and others have always been able to make the most out of tunes which might not be thought of as great standard material. First recorded by Elvis Presley and later by Corey Hart, this pop tune is normally played in 12/8 with a heavy backbeat.
