Everything Happens To Me

Recorded live May 25, 2011 during the last days of Toledo's famous jazz club, Murphy's Place down by the Maumee River.  Claude Black, piano, and Clifford Murphy, bass, have gone on now.  They had played together for over 60 years all over the world.  They took Anna under their wings and let her earn "cat" status the old way - on the bandstand.  They are missed.
