“My Little Suede Shoes” by Charlie Parker and it was released in 1952 on his album South Of The Border.
It is very possible that Bird was very much inspired by these two French songs “Pedro Gomez” (melody of the A section) and “Le Petit Cireur Noir” (melody of the B section). Listen to these tracks in the playlist and let me know what you think!
This 32-bar AABA song has a simple melody and the harmonic progression is also fairly simple as it does not modulate but it has secondary dominants and we can have fun with reharmonization.
