Review
BEST JAZZ RECORDING OF 1994. So sublimely satisfying, it's almost sinful! SMOKY BAR SONGS is that rare album that will please both lovers of fine jazz and fans of beguiling pop. Club standards, obscure gems and original tunes that deserve to become standards (Tom Toce, Lew Spence & Carroll Coates). Ms. Crane and Mr. Renzi make an alluring duo whose work here borders on the hypnotic. So pour yourself a tall, cool one, put on the headphones, kick off your shoes, lean back, close your eyes, and you'll be ready to be transported like I was. --Jeff Rossen, Gay Chicago Magazine
Product Description
Welcome to the No-Smoking Section of my Smoky Bar. Where do we go when we're feeling good? When we're feeling bad? To a Bar to celebrate and commiserate. The ups, the downs, the sorrows drowned. Well, these days we've given up smoking and cut back on our drinking. Thank goodness we can still indulge in luscious Smoky Bar Songs. Several of these wonderful songs are rare enough that they may be new to you and three of them are actually premiéres.
