Musical Sanity Break
I call this playlist "Cocktail Hour at the NP Lounge."
Hope you like a step into the vintage period. You'll find quite a few classics on this playlist so sit back and imagine yourself with a sparkling champagne martini in a New York ritzy nightclub circa 1955.


The playlist consists of:

  1.   Nat King Cole - For all we know
  2.  Ella Fitzgerald - I Remember You 
  3.  Lester Young - I Can't Get Started
  4.  Dean Martin - Just Say I Love Her
  5.  Johnny Hartman - Unforgettable
  6.  Julie London - Cry me a River
  7.  Johnny Hartman - These Foolish Things   
  8.  Bill Perkins - Little Bird 
  9.   Julie London - Why don't you do right
  10.   Johnny Hartman - Fools Rush In 
  11.  Billie Holiday - Detour Ahead 
  12.  Dean Martin - You Belong to Me
  13.  Billie Holiday - You Don't Know What Love Is
  14.  Nat King Cole - When I Fall in Love
  15.  Jo Stafford - I'll Be Seeing You
  16.  Dean Martin - Return to Me
  17.   Billie Holiday - Don't Be Late
  18.   Nat King Cole Stardust
