"Cherokee" (1938) is a jazz standard written by Ray Noble and recorded over the years by many jazz musicians and singers, including Charlie Parker, Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra, The Count Basie Orchestra, Sarah Vaughan, and Keely Smith.[1]
Charlie Parker used this song for the basis of his 1945 composition Ko-Ko.[1] The song has also been covered as an instrumental by Bud Powell,[1] Clifford Brown[1] and by Johnny Smith on his popularly and critically well-received album Moonlight in Vermont.[2]
The song was used in Jasper in a Jam (1946) sung by Peggy Lee, The Gene Krupa Story (1959), and as background music in Racing with the Moon (1984) and Lush Life (1993), a TV movie starring Jeff Goldblum and Kathy Baker.[1]
