“Writing for "The Bible of Show Business," VARIETY, was decidedly different from daily newspapers. While local entertainment reviews duly considered professional and amateur status, relation of performers to publishers, advertisers and politicians, the Variety critic asked two questions: 1. Was it any good? 2. Did the audience like it? It was luxury in the last millennium having lovely supper clubs at glorious hotels, teeming all week long, where diners ate as nicely as they dressed and entertained. At the Copley Plaza in Boston, weeks of Chanteuses Marian McPartland, Peggy Lee and and Blossom Dearie, then "Saloon Singers" Tony Bennett and Jerry Vale. Mauro DePasquale demonstrates the simplicity and ease that sweat and effort bring to music, a dining room at the ChaShu or a Public TV studio, at Mechanics Hall or outdoors at East Park.”
