Every time I walk out of a Paradise Big Band concert at the Tennessee Williams Theater I think to myself - wow they'll never be able to top this. What music, what vocalists, what a night - they can't beat this one. They do every concert just gets better.
The theme for this concert was "Big Band Time Machine" which took an imaginary trip back in time to the 1920's Big Band Era and onward through the 30's, 40's, 50's all the way up to 80's. The Concert started with "The Saint Louis Blues" and ended with "Sing, Sing, Sing". In between the Big Band played some great arrangements.
