"Deep Night" is a lesser-known standard tune composed by crooner Rudy Valle in the 1920s. I've been attracted to its unusual chord changes since I heard the Tatum/Defranco recording 30+ years ago. Here's my arrangement for C6th lap steel. It seems to fit the steel quite well.

Three nice versions of "Deep Night" ...

Art Tatum & Buddy Defranco
