Around about 1981 I saw Johnny Hartman at Disney World at a bar/lounge they had there. He sang as well as he could given the fact that hardly anyone was there to hear him, it was noisy and he had a pretty sad pick-up group behind him. I remember a popcorn machine churning away during a ballad.

After the set, I found Hartman sitting in a chair,smoking and all alone in a hallway outside of the lounge. He looked so sad and disgusted! I didn't feel I should say anything to him ( I kind of wish I had, today) but he had LPs that he had the bar selling so I bought a copiy of each, even though I already had at least one of them. I had to do something for him!

Odd place indeed! I don't believe there was a cover charge and Zoot Sims was there the week before and Clark Terry the next week!

That is very sad. Bet you wish you had said something.

Did ride Space Mountain a few times though. Still a treat, but the Aerosmith coaster at the MGM park smokes it.

That Aerosmith roller-coaster is indeed, quite KICK-ASS! :tup The music sounds great! B-)
