"Caravan"[10][115][116] is a jazz song with Middle Eastern influences, composed by Duke Ellington and Juan Tizol with lyrics by Irving Mills. It is mostly associated with Ellington, who recorded it many times in different arrangements.[117] It was a permanent part of Ellington's concert repertoire and was always played as the second number.[118] Barney Bigard made the first recording in 1936 with a band composed of members of Ellington's orchestra.[119] The first vocal version to become a hit was made by Billy Eckstine in 1946.[120]

"I Can't Get Started"[4][10][121] was introduced by Bob Hope in the Broadway musical Ziegfeld Follies of 1936.[122] It was composed by Vernon Duke with lyrics by Ira Gershwin. Bunny Berigan's 1937 version became his most popular recording[123] and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1975.[9] Due to the success of Berigan's version, the piece is especially popular among trumpeters.[122] Billie Holiday recorded the song in 1938 with Lester Young, and Young made a recording with his own trio in 1942.[122] The song is also known as "I Can't Get Started with You".[122] "Pennies from Heaven"[4][10][124] was written by Arthur Johnston and lyricist Johnny Burke for the film Pennies from Heaven. It was introduced by Bing Crosby, whose version remained on the top of the charts for 10 weeks and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song. Lester Young played on Count Basie's 1937 recording and recorded the song several times in the 1940s and 1950s.[125]

"Sing, Sing, Sing" is often associated with swing jazz bands, especially Benny Goodman's. The piece was performed in Goodman's 1938 Carnegie Hall concert[126] and was often used as the closing number in his live performances.[127] Written by Louis Prima and originally titled "Sing, Bing, Sing" as a reference to Bing Crosby,[126] the song is also known as "Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)".[128]

"There Is No Greater Love"[4][129][130] is an Isham Jones composition with lyrics by Marty Symes. Released by the Isham Jones Orchestra as a B-side to "Life Begins When You're in Love", it was the band's last hit before Woody Herman took over as bandleader. The first jazz recording was made by Duke Ellington.[131] A part of the song's melody was borrowed from Pyotr Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1.[132]

"The Way You Look Tonight"[4][44][133] was introduced by Fred Astaire in the film Swing Time. It was composed by Jerome Kern with lyrics by Dorothy Fields. Astaire's recording reached number one on the charts and the song won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. Billie Holiday recorded it with Teddy Wilson's orchestra in 1936. Benny Goodman made a version with Peggy Lee in 1942 and Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers recorded their version in 1954. Johnny Griffin performed the piece with John Coltrane and Hank Mobley on the 1957 album A Blowin' Session.[134] Kern wrote the song's melody in counterpoint with "A Fine Romance"; the songs are sung together on the film's closing scene.[135]
