This is a decidedly downturned show…blame my mood, but there’s also some defiance in here.

Purple & blue because of Prince…and green because of Ireland celebrating a special 100th Anniversary.

Enjoy!

This week’s episode is a return to form – after a month of fun & games with this show.  I appreciate you indulging me with this over the last bit, but with the end of summer comes the end of fun & games…right? 🙂

Anyway, do enjoy this tour de force of swing, standards & Sondheim.

Given this weekend’s heat,  I can’t think of a better way to cool down than some great tunes, a dip in the water & a great cocktail.

This show provides the first former, you’re on your own for the latter two.

It’s an ironic title, considering I didn’t play any of the many versions of Summertime that I own.

But, with Memorial Day Weekend upon us here in the States, it is the unofficial kickoff of Summertime…

This week’s show is all up-tempo music dedicated to making you feel good!  Perfect for a BBQ, block party or a top-down drive around town!

Enjoy!
