Just One of Those Things
Barry played and recorded Just One of Those Things often, but no class in the archive has him working through it. The one teaching clip filed under it, from a 2008 clinic in Spain, is about grooving and keeping time rather than the tune itself.

What he teaches through it
At his 2008 clinic in Spain, in a short clip whose description names this tune and Like Someone in Love, Barry told the players that the music is not exact and the main thing is to groove. The bass player, he said, began to sound like a real bass player once he was made to pat his foot and kept the tempo.
