Cole Porter's I Love You comes from Tender Feelin's, the trio album Duke Pearson recorded for Blue Note in December 1959 with Gene Taylor on bass and Lex Humphries on drums, in his first months as one of the label's trusted new voices.

The reading is classic Pearson: a clean bebop line, unhurried swing, and voicings that stay transparent even at speed. Nothing is wasted, which is exactly what made his playing and his writing so prized.

The transcription gives you his complete piano part with the hands separated.
