Pictured is a review from The Bellingham Herald, Friday, August ninth, nineteen ninety-one. When you walk into a club where the Jerry Michelsen Trio is playing, you get an irresistible urge to order a bottle of the best champagne. The scene is elegant. Three guys in tuxedos laying down some of the best piano jazz around. Add a sunset viewed from a Washington State Ferry sailing from Anacortes and a moonlit cruise back home and you have the ingredients of a fantasy evening.
