Happy Birthday, CT

If you're fortunate enough to hear him sing you will be treated to his wonderfully dulcet baritone. Otherwise you can just hear his announcements from the dj booth at The Duplex in the West Village just off Sheridan Square at Christopher Street and Seventh Avenue South. Karaoke takes place there every Saturday night, usually around 11:00 pm or so in the cabaret theater. There is a great serving staff with Fernando, who usually does the stage banter and introductions, Darcy and the currently traveling Sari who is on sabbatical. It's great fun and these guys can make you feel like a star, even if you're Bernice Clifton.

Tonight is special because it's the Kentucky born CT's birthday. We will be singing out!

This cutie of The Duplex family hails from Louisville, KY (Kentucky, that is!), the home of bourbon, tobacco and fast horses. (A real family values town!)
He has appeared in Forever Plaid throughout the U.S. and recently directed a production of the show which was performed as part of the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland, in the summer of 2003.
Something must have affected him in Scotland: he can now frequently be seen wearing a utilikilt!.

Recorded in New York, New York in February 1990. ( Thank You, Singers and Saints Blog ) Personnel: Abbey Lincoln (vocals); Jackie McLean (alto saxophone); Clark Terry (trumpet); Alain Jean-Marie (piano); Charlie Haden (bass); Billy Higgins (drums). "Have we been waiting for something like this since Billie, then Dinah passed on--i.e. groovy, in-the-tradition jazz singing that actually means something? Heir apparent Betty Carter is on an ego trip, Cassandra Wilson is too arty... and so on. Abbey Lincoln's trip is something else again (perhaps Parisian) as she poignantly introduces "How High The Moon" in broken French and triumphantly ends the set with Francis Lai's "Live For Life."

Lincoln gets excellent arrangements from Ron Carter and accompaniment fro
