The first of tonight's triple-header featured vocalist Dulcie May Morino in a sublime performance accompanied from afar by Stephen Bridgland on guitar. When I checked in Dulcie was working out on Poison Ivy, the Lieber/Stoller number made famous by The Coasters.
Perdido swung gently and we met Dulcie's beautiful white cat - I think our Daphne was jealous as she refused to look at the screen.
Is You Is or is You Ain't my Baby? may be grammatically suspect but it's still a great tune with a great lyric and, if Dulcie had been singing it to me there would have been no doubt as to my answer!
God Bless the Child suffered from some interruptions - not least by the cat wanting out and the child remained unblessed. Hallelujah I Just Love Him So swung along nicely whilst Peel me a Grape had me reaching for the fruit bowl.
Puttin' on the Ritz, Sway and Undecided followed - Dulcie was in fine voice but, unfortunately, I had a date with Rico and Spats so I missed the final numbers.
I'll make sure my rota is better scheduled next time!
