Just a few short words about Bobby.
What a genius.
He was part of the fabric of New York City for years, and he did it mostly from behind a piano at the Cafe Carlyle, where he held court for over 35 years, playing and singing the standards. Bobby also made movies and commercials, including a very well-arranged version of the "Charlie" perfume theme song. Bobby Short died today of leukemia at the age of 80, and he had been planning to tour the world after wrapping up his stint at the Carlyle this summer.
