[78-L] What's the most recorded jazz tune of all time?

[Kristjan Saag]

David Lennick quoted Tom Lord:

> *According to today’s count in The Jazz Discography, the #1 recorded
> jazz tune of all time is “Body And Soul” – 1947 occurrences in our
> database.*

It's quite interesting to see how they define "jazz standard" and how they

Where you also find the, somewhat alarming, report that 40 per cent of the 
songs included on available Jazz CD's today are arrangements of the Top 1000 
standards!
