I'll give my vote to the Ray Brown too. Although there are a bunch of good versions. A couple of others that haven't been mentioned is Jimmy Forrest's from "Night Train" (slow and early r&b jazz) and jonah jones from "I Dig Jonah" (faster with a shuffle).

Hehehe, I think I have the Jonah Jones one on LP, it gets my vote for the silliest version.
