I Can’t Get Started

[I. Gershwin Ira Gershwin V. Duke Vernon Duke]

“I Can’t Get Started” was a very relevant song for it’s time with it’s references to the 1929 stock market crash and overseas military conflicts. That being said, it’s still a very melodic and interesting song suited to multiple styles. Try it here in a bolero style.
