"Saint Louis Blues" is a popular American song composed by W. C. Handy in the blues style. It remains a fundamental part of jazz musicians' repertoire. It was also one of the first blues songs to succeed as a pop song. It has been performed by numerous musicians of all styles from Louis Armstrong and Bessie Smith to Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Guy Lombardo, and the Boston Pops Orchestra. It has been called "the jazzman's Hamlet". Published in September 1914 by Handy's own company, it later gained such popularity that it inspired the dance step the "foxtrot".

This version by Ron Smith is in the style of Duke Ellington. Played live on his Yamaha Clavinova and recorded via midi. Emailed to me and played through my Yamaha DGX-505 and recorded using Cakewalk, Adobe Audition and Audacity.

Cheers Ron
