This interpretation of the Carpenters' "Close to You" is going to reinvent this song for you. Shirley has never been in better form. This is a powerful performance preceded by a message about and to Michael Jackson and his family. There are more videos of Shirley this night at the You Tube Channel linked in this video.
Recorded at Wilfs Restaurant June 27, 2009. Wilf's @ Union Station. Portland Oregon, USA. Shirley Nanette Vocals (www.shirleynanette.com). Vince Frates Piano, Bill Athens Bass. They turn everything they do into a fresh interpretation.
