Buck Clayton

Buck Clayton (born Wilbur Dorsey Clayton; Parsons, Kansas, November 12, 1911 – New York City, December 8, 1991) was an American jazz trumpet player who was a leading member of Count Basie’s "Old Testament" orchestra and a leader of mainstream-oriented jam session recordings in the 1950s. His principal influence was Louis Armstrong. The Penguin Guide to Jazz says that he “synthesi[zed] much of the history of jazz trumpet up to his own time, with a bright brassy tone and an apparently limitless facility for melodic improvisation”. Clayton worked closely with Li Jinhui, father of Chinese popular music in Shanghai. His contributions helped change musical history in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. more »

Maybe it's because the kiss you gave me
Touched my heart and went right through
Now I can't tell you why; I only know that I
Fell helplessly in love with you

Oh, maybe it's because the song we danced to
Told a story old and new
I can't figure out just why it came about
Or how I fell in love with you

I could say you're grand and therefore
I care for you so
But there is a why and wherefore
And I'd like to know

Now maybe it's because the star I wished on
Made a certain wish come true
Or it just could be that you were meant for me
And maybe I was meant, oh baby, meant for you

Oh, baby, or it just could be that you were meant for me
And, baby, I was meant for you
