Banu Gibson, with the New Orleans Hot Jazz, is a dynamic performer with a big voice, and stage presence to spare she's the consummate entertainer specializing in early classic jazz, and her band is absolutely superb. An evening with Banu and her band features songs by Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Fats Waller, and George Gershwin. Leonard Maltin, film correspondent for Entertainment Tonight, said "Banu Gibson and her band blend musicianship and showmanship in an irresistible brand of entertainment. I'm crazy about them." http://centerstageartists.com/artists/BanuGibson/index.html

  2. A cute record. Everybody knows some of these songs are now classics, but there is also some unknowns, except for those, like me, who are fans of the Astaire-Rogers movies of the 1930's. Have it all on DVD. Do you know that Fred kiss Ginger only one time in all these movies ? In the last one.
