In his later years, legendary lyricist
Sammy Cahn took to the stage to perform myriad of his songs solo, interspersing them with a running commentary that kept audiences enthralled, all captured for posterity on his
An Evening with Sammy Cahn album.
Adam Green's
Jacket Full of Danger album casts a similar spell, even without a spoken commentary. The singer/songwriter may indeed be a
Cahn for a new age; he has similar gifts for lyrical construction and turns of phrase.
