pdxdjazz Administrator Staff member Jan 9, 2023 #2 This is the correct forum. But… The correct song title is Blue Spirit Blues (No matter what Trombone Shorty calls it…) “mean blue spirits” is a line in the lyrics, not the title. It was composed by Spencer Williams who also is credited with Basin Street Blues and many other classic tunes from that era. https://adp.library.ucsb.edu/index.php/matrix/detail/2000038692/W149134-Blue_spirit_blues Always remember to include correct composer on charts posted in the forums. https://forums.irealpro.com/threads/Composer-information.14683/ Often the performer is not the composer. You may include the performer (version) with the song title. Please use correct iRp chart-info format. Example: Blue Sprit Blues (Bessie Smith) - Spencer Williams ...title…………………....(version) - composer(s) Please review the guidelines for posting charts: https://forums.irealpro.com/threads/Guidelines-for-sharing-songs-and-playlists.22105/ Also, please correct your chart.
