JAZZ 101: STANDARDS TIME
You pick your favorite American Songbook standard (we’ll use Ted Gioia’s excellent “THE JAZZ STANDARDS” essay collection as our guide), and we’ll listen to a half dozen classic recorded arrangements of each tune to illuminate the history of Jazz a song at a time. Our sound systems crave great jazz. A wonderful time is guaranteed, whether you are a jazz lover, jazz-curious, or simply a lover of great cocktails and conversation.

GOIN’ TO CHICAGO
We did a night of Motown for the Republican convention in Detroit. The Dems are in Chicago, and we’ll meet them there with a night of Chicago themed Blues, Jazz and Rock. (And although we’re tempted, we won’t play all 36 albums by the band Chicago!)
