So this morning, I wake up and look at a stack of music that needs to be looked at. Over 75 tunes that I need to whittle down to 15 to 20 songs for my NYC Feinstein's debut on Monday, November 1, 2010.
After a 2 hour dilemna, I decide my opening song will be very unconventional and usually not considered an opener. But I used it once as an opener long ago, and one of the toughest critics in the U.S. gave my choice a thumb's up, so we shall see. Joe M, don't ask, I ain't tellin'! LOL.
Picked some other tunes that I am really looking forward to singing, so now I have 40 songs (down from 100) that I have to decide on.
My goal with the Great American Songbook is to push it into the Sixties, Seventies, and Eighties, and alot of my selections are from these decades. But you just have to include some evergreens. Once again, don't ask, I ain't tellin! If you want to find out come and see me at Feinstein's.
