Good jazz song to learn on piano?


I wanna learn a cool jazz song, perferably modern (sounding). As long as it isn't too complex I can handle it, to give an idea of the level I'm at I can play Debussy's Clair de Lune and Arabesque without much trouble. Thanks.

Best ones....

"Take Five" (Dave Brubeck)

"C Jam Blues" (Duke Ellington)

"Satin Doll" (Duke Ellington)

"All Blues" (Miles Davis)

"Baby Elephant Walk" (Henry Mancini)

"Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" (Cannonball Adderley)

You and the Night and the Music.

Chocolate Rain

I love charless song choices, but for some more cool arrangements, check out Jamie Cullum on almost anything off the "Pointless Nostalgic" album. All of these except a couple are modern arrangements of jazz "standards" with a few originals thrown in. Good luck getting into the world of jazz, you'll love it.
