The Very Best of The Jazz Cafe 3 CD

Factory Sealed CD

 

"Welcome to the Jazz Café Madame et Monsieur. Where would you

like to sit?” A table near the band if you please. “Certainly and we

guarantee a splendid show, if only you are willing to put down your

soup spoons and listen.” We can only hope diners are not offended

by the supercilious tone of the head waiter at our imaginary Jazz

Café. But he is a connoisseur of le jazz hot and can’t abide people

talking during performances by artists such as Carmen McRae,

Nina Simone and Peggy Lee, not to mention Dave Brubeck, Frank

Sinatra, Louis Armstrong and Charlie Parker.
