I thought this duo was pretty good, jazzing up a jam on Till
There Was You, one of my favorite Beatles tunes, which I believe was on their
first LP. Citarella used to be Balducci’s. Balducci’s moved and opened a larger
location, far from a PATH station. Never
shopped at the Citarella. Probably pass by weekly; 9th street being
such a critcal embarkation point for our journeys to the Manhattan
side – the first and utlimate, burough. Come to think of it, rarely see
musicians busking there. If you look closely, two men are sitting with their
backs against the Citarella store front. They’re panhandling. They were the
only ones paying these cats any mind, except me I guess who paused long enough
to take in the song and snap a picture. I tossed some change into the hat and
got on the PATH humming the Beatles song I first heard as a child when my
oldest sister first brought Rock &
Roll into the household.
