The Making Of 2:00 AM Paradise Cafe
Hi everyone,
Boy, I haven’t seen this video in years! Watching it brought back such deep memories for me.
As most of you know, “2:00AM-Paradise Café” was a milestone in my career as a songwriter, producer and performer.
It was a daring thing to do. After nearly a dozen years of pop music success, to dive into creating a jazz album seemed ridiculous. When the press got wind of what I was doing, they rolled their eyes and laughed it off.
The success of the album was sweeter than anything because nobody believed this album could work. Nobody except me!
The cameras followed the making of the album from the first rehearsal until the last take.
It’s quite a ride and I think you’ll find it interesting and emotional. I sure do.
Enjoy,
Barry

This show wa...
