Boulevard Beat

Fans all in their finest with cashmere scarves enchanted eyes step quickly from taxis at curbside or ascend the subway stairs eager for an evening of cocktails and smooth saucy straight ahead jazz let's get this party started Hot trumpet solo finds his way up through the mix lets the groove fly all bouncy and bright his sidemen give him space and he takes it Drinks arrive as the piano man starts layin down a solid confident stride riffin on that timeless melody with some cozy comfortable chords Closing time's still hours away this club is packed to the walls tempo changes from breezy to brisk and resistance as they say is futile
