SATURDAY JAZZ BRUNCH: Pennies From Heaven performed by Frank Sinantra and Count Basie - How can I not end a week of music from New Jersey and not include the biggest legends from the state, Sinatra and Basie. Sinatra grew up in Hoboken where he got his first exposure to the music business in NJ. Basie grew up in Red Bank doing chores in the Palace Theatre and eventually had a theatre named in his honor.
Here the two jazz greats collaborate for the first time, which truly is an historic moment. Any tune would do, but why not start at the first track, the classic show tune made popular by Bing Crosby.16 Notes/ Hide
