A Club in Hollywood

Tweet

Way, way, back in 1965, there was a jazz piano man, Horace Silver and he was playing at another jazz man's club in Hollywood called Shelly's Manne-Hole. My Uncle Bob Allen, a WW 11 vet and great tap dancer (before he broke his ankle) and also an army-trained cook worked at that club as sous chef, doing, I guess, what sous chefs do, which is run the kitchen when the head chef is off or out. Anyway, here is this great jazz group playing songs like you can hear in the link below and Mr. Horace Silver thought my uncle did such a good job with the food, that he signed the album he released that year & gave it to Bob. I have had it now for many years and treasure it.
