Do we really really need another mushy Valentine's Day Jazz Show? Certainly not, but what I promise you for the following 60 minutes is an appropriate soundtrack of a romantic time because you can listen to some of the best ballads in Jazz showcased by Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Miles Davis, Fred Hersch, Sonny Rollins, Stan Getz, Bob Brookmeyer, Ben Webster and others, leaving you with the question "What is this thing called Love ?". Have a great time !
