UPDATE
2008:
I had a very successful concert
at the Parafono
Jazz
Club.
It was so crowded, and the band
was really good. The legendary
Mario, of
Rebética
fame, came on stage with
me!
A
BIG THRILL was that on my
stopover in New York, I sang with
LES PAUL. He has a steady
Monday-night at the
Iridium
Jazz
Club.
I was invited to the stage and
sang I'm Old Fashioned and
then he and I did a duet of
It's been a Long, Long
Time.

Aug.
13, 2009:
Les
Paul
died today at age 94. I
feel so fortunate to
have met him and to have
made music with
him.
|
UPDATE
2009:
And this year on my New York
stopover at the Iridium
Jazz
Club,
I sang some numbers with
legendary jazz guitarist Bucky
Pizzarelli. WOW
:-)
