REGINA CARTER (jazz violinist) “Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most.”
This 1955 song is a jazz theme taken from T.S. Elliot’s The Waste Land: “April is the cruelest month.”
“Once I was a sentimental thing,
Threw my heart away each Spring;
Now a Spring romance hasn’t got a chance
Promised my first dance to Winter;
All I’ve got to show’s a splinter for my little fling!”
Regina Carter
