Sunny - Bobby Hebb - Jazz Piano Cover - Funk Keyboard
Here I am playing my own improvisational version of the popular song “Sunny” originally written and recorded by African American singer songwriter Bobby Hebb in 1966.
Piano interpretation by Mark Chang recorded March 2008 in Davis, California. Thank you for your kind comments.
“Sunny” has been recorded by, among others, Boney M, Cher, Georgie Fame, Johnny Rivers, Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra with Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, the Electric Flag, The Four Seasons, the Four Tops, Wilson Pickett, Les McCann, Dusty Springfield, and The Alex Trio featuring David Wise. One cover, a disco version called “Sunny ‘76″ was a hit for Hebb in that year.
“Sunny” was first recorded in New York City, which resulted in a tour with The Beatles for Hebb. It is one of the most covered popular songs, with hundreds of versions released.
