need help finding a song
I heard a smooth jazz song yesterday and the only thing I can remember is that a woman was singing and that the chorus went, "I can play jazz all night, if you ask me I just might." I know that's not a lot of info but if you know the name of the song I'd really appreciate it. I tried searching on google but couldn't find anything useful, so coming here is kinda my last resort.

You heard "Life is a Groove" by Karrin Allyson. She wrote the lyrics, but the original composition (Jordu) was done by Irving "Duke" Jordan in 1953.
Here's a Wiki article about this Jazz Standard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordu
Here's an original recording with Max Roach and Clifford Brown ... pre lyrics http://youtu.be/x8xZTCIeJIY
