I don't think I was considered to be a cabaret singer because I didn't have patter that was written.
I've always loved jazz.
My grandmother passed at 104. She sang and wrote songs until she passed.
I say what's in my heart, and I do it in my concerts.
Too often, the opportunity knocks, but by the time you push back the chain, push back the bolt, unhook the two locks and shut off the burglar alarm, it's too late.
Possibly, I should have been a jazz singer from the beginning.
