I Really Like The Melody

Michael, From 'six Dance Lessons...' He Was Somebody Who Had A Lot Of Self-loathing; Being A Gay Man Who Lost His Family And Felt Ostracized. It Was An Interesting Character To Play. He Was So Bitter And Jaded About Life. Even Though I'm Not Like That Personally, Everybody Has A Side Of Themselves That Tends To Look At The Negative Side Of Things. He Was An Interesting Character To Play.

I Really Like The Melody "red Wine Is Good For My Heart" And People Respond To It. I Decided To Put It On The Album.

I Came Upon Diana Krall's Jazz Arrangement Of "a Case Of You" Several Years Back. I've Always Wanted To Pay Homage To Both Her Version And Joni's, And By Proxy, My Mom. She's The One That Introduced Me To That Music.

I Love Jane [krakowski]. Jane's Been A Dear Friend For Maybe A Dozen Years. We've Worked Together On Many Shows And Concerts And Readings. We Did 'damn Yankees' Together And Then We Did 'xanadu.' Jane Did All The Workshops Of 'xanadu' Before It Moved To Broadway. She's Hysterical And Our Voices Blended. We Had A Similar Sensibility.

People Know If You've Got The Goods, If You're Easy To Work With, And If You Can Get The Job Done.
