O’s Notes: Paul Marinaro brings his rich baritone to the stage, armed with a strong band that includes a tight rhythm section, and strings that embellish his every word. We love the instrumental harmonies that support Paul’s vocals across three dynamic sets over two discs as he celebrates the music of Duke on Mood Ellington. There are twenty-five classics arranged by twelve artists including Mike Allemana (g), Alan Broadbent, John Clayton, and Bill Cunliffe.
