Mack the Knife
THEO MONK
Monk's Mood

No More Auction Block
BILLIE HOLIDAY
Lover Come Back to Me
RAY CHARLES
Baby Won't You Please Come Home
CARMAN McRAE

NAT KING COLE
Ramblin' Rose
I plan to return to posting Nick's Coffee House at least every other Wednesday. If you are interested in visiting previous Coffee House posts,you may click on the label below that reads Wednesday Coffeehouse. Or, you may remain here as long as you wish listening to the music and enjoying a very cheap cup of coffee!

We have too many high sounding words, and too few actions that correspond with them. ~ Abigail Adams (1744 - 1818), in a letter to her husband, John Adams, 1774
That said, what shall we do about:
That's all for this coffee house, folks. I hope that you have enjoyed this music of this selection of American American artists. The sampling presented at this coffee house is just a small sampling from my collection of CDs and an even smaller sampling of the vinyl LPs I have of African American artists! (I so wish that I had a turntable so that I could again listen to vinyl).

So glad to see Monk in the mix. Over at my place I've posted a painting named after one of his tunes. It seems that only one person has caught that so far.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid, my parents had an LP with Nat King Cole's Ramblin Rose. That takes me back, Nick.
I'm glad you've got your audio back.
I have heard of Billie Holiday but this is the first I have ever heard her sing. Thank you, Saintly Nick.
ReplyDeleteHi Nick! Back after some time, I think. First of, wish you a very happy (belated) Birthday.
ReplyDeleteRegarding this post: I guess, it takes all the colours to make the world a better place for the future. Thanks for posting. Enjoyed listening at the coffee house. Take care! :)
This is excellent, Rev. Saint!
ReplyDeleteLove all your selection. Miss Holiday is a particular favourite of mine. But goodness me... where is Aretha??
ReplyDeleteGreat music, Nick. My fav is "Ramblin Rose."
ReplyDeleteI am very happy to see the return of your coffee house, Nick. Thank you for all of the music.
