This DVD presents the world of Bobby Short, who reigned as the monarch of the nightclubs of Café Society. Join Bobby at the Café Carlyle for this thrilling 25-song set, radiating from the tiny stage. He also invites us into his home, for an exclusive and intimate look at the man behind the music.

Rao's is notorious for being one of the most difficult restaurants in New York in which to get a reservation. Offered is a compilation from what has been called 'the best jukebox in New York.'

Time Magazine called Hildegarde a 'luscious, hazel-eyed Milwaukee blonde who sings the way Garbo looks.' A total of 23 tracks complete this studiously-compiled anthology, a nostalgic homage to the musical past.

This CD is perfectly recorded to reflect the intimate nature of the Carlyle itself. Each song by Bobby Short is met with loving applause from the audience. You can almost imagine you are there, a few feet from the stand, enjoying a drink in the dark with that special someone.
