Where Did The Gentleman Go? The Songs of Bobby Troup & The Life of Scotty Bowers

“Where Did The Gentleman Go?” looks at the songs of Bobby Troup and the life of Scotty Bowers, two ex-marines who made new lives for themselves in Los Angeles just after World War II. They each took divergent but intersecting paths to find their fortunes and boy, did they find them. One became an esteemed composer, jazz pianist, singer, actor, and husband to the singer and actress Julie London. The other was a bartender who worked in a gas station and fucked  just about every star in Hollywood. Here I'm singing the title tune and giving a little exposition before singing "Man Of The West." The brilliant Tex Arnold is at the piano.

A singer worth watching and a show worth seeing.
--Cabaret Scenes

Macauley’s contagious enthusiasm for musical history and his smooth, enduring baritone are perfect ingredients for an interesting evening. He presents curious facts in a delightful way. His voice has an odd and appealing resonance thanks to his subtle but pleasant vibrato with his lungs supplying his voice with a restrained echo chamber. I don’t know if it’s natural or deliberate but it makes his singing very intriguing.

Hollywood Party: Movie Songs 1928-1936

It’s been 90 years since Al Jolson warned us that “You ain’t heard nothin’ yet!,” and then burst into song in The Jazz Singer, announcing that the Hollywood Party was on. The movie musical giddily made itself up as it went along giving us timeless tunes and stars amid the taps and two-strip technicolor. From Janet Gaynor charmingly strumming a zither and a bevy of writhing earth-scorching bathing beauties turning up the heat in 1929’s Sunny Side Up to an unmatched peak of sophisticated artistry from Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Jerome Kern and Dorothy Fields in Swing Time, just seven years later,  Hollywood Party remembers the first musical film stars and their songs, including beloved standards and long-forgotten tunes from songwriters De Sylva, Brown, & Henderson, Herman Hupfeld, Herb Nacio Brown, Richard Rodgers, Yip Harburg, Jay Gorney, Lorenz Hart, Richard Whiting and others writing for Jeanette MacDonald, Maurice Chevalier, Claudette Colbert, and Bing Crosby at the beginning of their legendary film careers. 

​Cutting a cool figure in his tuxedo, Macauley’s sex appeal is as magnetic as it is dangerous. 

The lyrics Macauley has chosen are unerringly smart, funny and frivolous – all qualities Macauley himself embodies as he takes us into his confidence.

Macauley is genuinely having fun and his rapt audience is along for the ride.

This show is delightful entertainment.

Le Grand Tour: The Music of Michel Legrand

Part of my “Easy-Listening Trilogy,” looking at great movie songwriters of the ‘60s through the ‘80s, “Le Grand Tour” gets continental with the music of the legendary French composer Michel Legrand, who wrote the classic film musicals Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Young Girls Of Rochefort, Yentl and scores for hundreds of films. I Will Wait For You, Windmills Of Your Mind and What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life? are just three of his classic tunes, with lyrics by Alan & Marilyn Bergman, Norman Gimbel, Johnny Mercer and others. The songs are brilliantly arranged by musical director Tex Arnold on piano and the wonderful Jon Burr plays bass in this clip. Marilyn Lester wrote in Cabaret Scenes in 2017 "Macauley focuses on the lyrics, with incisive interpretation of the material as well as an understanding of technique."
Mr. Lucky­­: The Songs of Henry Mancini

Also in the "Easy Listening Trilogy," "Mr. Lucky" covers Henry Mancini’s well-known classic songs as well as some of his lesser known tunes covering thirty years of TV and movie themes, from the mid-50s through the mid-80s, with lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, Leslie Bricusse, Don Black, Ray Evans and Jay Livingston, Norman Gimbel, Rod McKuen, Johnny Mercer, Bob Merrill, and Robert Wells. The arrangements again are by Tex Arnold, who also plays piano, and Jon Burr plays bass in this clip. Henry Mancini, the four-time Oscar and 20-time Grammy winning composer, is best known for his Pink Panther, Baby Elephant Walk, and Peter Gunn  themes as well as classic songs such as Moon River, The Days Of Wine And Roses, Two For The Road,  and Charade.  BroadwayWorld.com wrote "charming, sophisticated tribute to the music of Henry Mancini hits all the right notes."
It Was Me: The Lyrics of Norman Gimbel

The first of the  "Easy Listening Triology," looking at great songwriters from films of the '60s through the '80s, “It Was Me” looks at the great lyricist Norman Gimbel. Maybe a name you’re not too familiar with, but you certainly know the songs and film and television themes he’s written: Killing Me Softly With His Song, Girl, Meditation, Boy From Ipanema, Meditation, So Nice, Sway, I Will Follow Him and It Goes Like It Goes are just a few more you know the words to. The composers he's worked with include Michel Legrand, Henry Mancini, Charles Fox, Antonio Carlos Jobim and David Shire. Norman Gimbel won an Academy Award and two Grammys for Song of the Year for his lyrics. The gorgeous arrangements are by Tex Arnold, who is on piano and the wonderful Jon Burr is on bass in this clip. BroadwayWorld.com called "It Was Me" “a perfectly sublime cabaret show” and Cabaret Scenes said it was "one delicious tasting confection" and NitelifeExchange.com wrote "The evening is a bonafide winner on every possible count."
MWAH!: The Dinah Shore Show

 “MWAH!” is an affectionate and humorous look at the life and career of Dinah Shore as seen through the eyes of one of her most ardent fans, me, who sat transfixed in front of the TV during the 1970s watching her talk show DINAH! almost daily. "MWAH!" presents many of Dinah’s 92 pop chart hits, ranging from million selling songs to lesser-known standards of the most popular female singer of the 1940s including Blues In The Night, Buttons and Bows, Skylark, Shoo Fly Pie And Apple Pan Dowdy and I Wish I Didn't Love You So. Cabaret Scenes Magazine said of "MWAH!": “Macauley deftly combined a musical tribute to Dinah Shore with spicy biographical stories from his own life. The result was an evening of hilarity and impeccable musical performance.” Victoria Ordin of BroadwayWorld.com wrote in 2016 that "MWAH!" was  "one of the most successful shows of its kind I've seen." Daryl Kojak accompanies Jeff in this clip.
