Playing time: 37 minutes. The best way to discover the Velvet Tango Room is by accident. With the ambience of a high-end mens' club of a half-century ago, meticulously mixed drinks and top-notch jazz musicians tickling the keys of the baby grand, it seems to have dropped from another world into the nondescript neighborhood of modest homes that bridges Tremont and Ohio City. In fact, it's exterior looks like a drab, working-class residence. Singer-pianist Harry Bacharach landed there one night about a year and a half ago because he "got lost." Things were pretty dead that weekday night. But another patron recognized him from a gig at Edison's, and the bartender, thinking he must be somebody, booked him for Thursdays. He's played there Mondays and Thursdays ever since. "Bacharach's voice is an amalgam of Mose Allison, Hoagy Carmichael and Randy Newman, with twice as many bent tones and half as much clarity of lyrics. He wrote all ten songs on the CD and you have to admire his consistency: they sound pretty much alike; same goes for his accompaniments." -Jazz Times.
