Moody Mood For Love (Fields-Moody-Jefferson) by King Pleasure, with Blossom Dearie and Teacho & Band (sometimes reissued only with the title “I’m In The Mood For Love”).

This vocalese treatment of James Moody’s 1949 improvisation to the 1935 standard “I’m In The Mood For Love,” with lyrics by Eddie Jefferson, spent four months on Billboard’s singles charts, peaking at
#2 on the R&B rankings. For Moody's instrumental version, listen here: https://youtu.be/vi9Xv7XO8AY

King Pleasure’s real name of Clarence Beeks will be familiar to fans of the Eddie Murphy-Dan Aykroyd comedy film “Trading Places,” as it was the name that director John Landis gave to the villain character played by Paul Gleason, purportedly in tribute to the jazz artist.
