Count Basie

William "Count" Basie (August 21, 1904 – April 26, 1984) was an American jazz pianist, organist, bandleader, and composer. His mother first taught him piano and he started performing in his teens. Dropping out of school, he learned to operate lights for vaudeville and improvised to accompany silent films at a local theatre in his town of Red Bank, New Jersey. By 16, he increasingly played jazz piano at parties, resorts and other venues. In 1924, he went to Harlem, where his performing career expanded; he toured with groups to the major jazz cities of Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City. In 1929 he joined Bennie Moten's band in Kansas City, and played with them until Moten's death in 1935. more »

Make me rainbows
Make me spring in the snow
Make me beautiful music wherever I go

Make me unwind, leave behind rhyme or reason
Make me a room where I'll bloom out of season

Make me sunsets, paint our names in the sky
Let your arms be my wings and together we'll fly
Don't let me fall till I'm all I can be

Make me some rainbows
Star-spangled rainbows
Please make those rainbows for me

Make me unwind, leave behind rhyme or reason
Make me a room where I'll bloom out of season

Make me sunsets, paint our names in the sky
Let your arms be my wings and together we'll fly
Don't let me fall till I'm all I can be

Make me some rainbows
Star-spangled rainbows
Please make some rainbows for me

Make those rainbows
Star-spangled rainbows
Please make some rainbows for me

Make some rainbows
Star-spangled rainbows
Please make some rainbows for me
