 The Village Vanguard is located at 178-7th Avenue South. That's on
7th Avenue just below West 11th Street in Greenwich Village. Nearest
subway:1,9,2 or 3 (local or express) at the 14th Street stop.
After dinner, Thanksgiving 2003, my partner and I split from the party and
hit the Village Vanguard
(www.villagevanguard.com) for an intimate evening with soul-jazz/bop legend
Lou Donaldson.
Sporting a Duke-style moustache and a classy brown suit, Lou Donaldson led his quartet through a set of standards ("Autumn in New York"), bop classics ("Blue Monk"), and his trademark '60s soul-jazz grooves ("Alligator Boogaloo" and the like).
