The bass player said, "So, what do you want to start with?"
I had a strange idea, remembered an offhand quote I'd made in a solo the other day, quickly thought (ii-V-I-vi-#ivø7-vii7b9-iii7-yep), and said, "How about 'Copacabana?' "
He said, "Copacabana?!"
"Yep. Follow me."
And so the first time I ever set my hand to "Copacabana" was as a snappy swing, in front of a roomful of people, one of whom chuckled.
Every single gig you play, you should play something you've never played before.
