Patti's and Lenny's 50th anniversary

The 50th anniversary of Patti and Lenny working together was on February 10th, so they put on a little online show to celebrate. They played some songs, and told some stories about the old days. Tony accompanied on bass and keyboards.

"Ballad of A Bad Man" was a poem she read that night at St. Mark's Church. Lenny accompanied her, then and now. Patti described his playing as impressions of a stock car race. I think this has been repeated, but changing it to "imitation of a stock car race," or "sounds of a stock car race." At least that's how I'd heard the story in the past.
