Presented in memory of Vic Cenicola (May 10, 2023) and Jerry Bruno (June 22, 2020). Back in the day when you could still find great jazz in local New Jersey restaurants, I was able to record a few of the performances. This performance was on April 25, 2013 and it captures them playing Satin Doll. Vic and Jerry were very dear friends. I was fortunate enough to have sung on a few occasions with Vic on guitar and he was easily the greatest accompanist\musician I have ever performed with. Jerry Bruno was an incredible bass player musician and gentleman. I first saw him play live with the David Allyn Big Band at The Red Blazer Too in NYC. Both Vic and Jerry will be truly missed and not forgotten.
