Pink Martini: Bolero

In a galaxy long ago and far away, there was a mythical land called "Hollywood", where the inhabitants lived lives of glamor, class, and style. Check out these beautiful b&w portraits of movie starlets from that golden era of the silver screen, set to Ravel's "Bolero" performed by Pink Martini of Portland, OR.

Today's starlets could learn something about sophistication and grace from their stately predecessors.


A very good rendition of Ravel's classic. According to my local jazz station (KPLU), Bolero was on the original issue of Pink Martini's CD "Sympatique", but is absent from the subsequent reissue.
 
In response to Doug's posting of "And I Love Her", l am going to bump up this classic.
