NYC: JEFF MACAULEY IN IT WAS ME: THE LYRICS OF NORMAN GIMBEL
Bistro Award winning singer Jeff Macauley brings his tribute to the lyrics of Norman Gimbel, It Was Me, to DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788) on Wednesdays, August 29th & September 5th at 7:00 pm. Norman Gimbel won an Oscar for "It Goes Like It Goes" from Norma Rae and is responsible for some of the most recognizable and best-loved lyrics of the last half-century. In a career that goes back to the early '50s, Mr. Gimbel, working with such composers as Charles Fox, Michel LeGrand, David Shire and Antonio Carlos Jobim, gave words to such standards as Meditation, Sway, So Nice, The Girl From Ipanema, I Will Wait For You, Watch What Happens, I Will Follow Him, Killing Me Softly With His Song, Bluesette, and Canadian Sunset, as well as the themes to Wonder Woman, Laverne & Shirley and Happy Days. In his previous shows, Jeff Macauley explored the rich world of early musical films in "Hollywood Party: Movie Songs 1928-1934," and paid tribute to the most popular female singer of the '40s and a beloved Hollywood icon in "MWAH! The Dinah Shore Show." After examining the popular songs of the '20s through the '40s, Jeff is now taking a look at the popular music of the '50s, '60s and '70s through the extensive catalog of Norman Gimbel under the musical direction of the superbly talented Tex Arnold. There is a $15 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
