It's a match made in Vegas! Two of the most impressive celebrity impersonators in the business -- Sharon Owens and Sebastian Anzaldo -- pay tribute to two of music's greatest icons -- Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra. In real life, Streisand and Sinatra never performed live together, but in this show, Owens and Anzaldo sing some of the most most memorable music ever written and exchange banter so spot-on to their characters that you feel like you've been transported to the celebrity concert you always wished had happened. For her amazing Streisand impersonation, Owens was winner of the Fox TV show Performing As..., which led to a series of TV appearances and a long run at the Las Vegas Riviera, where she headlined with Anzaldo in Barbra and Frank, The Concert That Never Was. Anzaldo, who has the voice, looks and mannerisms of 'Ol Blue Eyes, was one of the top acts on the Vegas circuit for eight years with his band Wild Life before joining forces with Owens for Barbra and Frank.

Great ambiance, the musicians were excellent. Although I had not readily seen the two drink minimum, that was not a problem.Written on Mar 17 2008
I recommend it to anyone that likes Latin Jazz leaning towards salsa.

Description
As a young player, Wayne Wallace got his first taste for Latin jazz performing with Pete Escovedo--a pretty good start--and for many years Wallace honed his skills, and developed his passion, with the Afro-Cuban jazz cauldron that was John Santos' famed Machete Ensemble. His knowledge of, and ardor for, this fiery music has been enhanced further by several trips to Cuba.
This year, Wallace burst forth with not one, but two highly acclaimed CDs, Dedication and The Reckless Search for Beauty. The first is a high-energy large ensemble jazz recording, and the second is a Latin jazz celebration.
As a young musician, the life-long San Franciscan was often the first call trombonist for a wide range of traveling musical stars as they passed through town. "The Doctor" has played with everyone from McCoy Tyner to Ray Charles, from Count Basie to Sammy Davis, Jr., and from Santana to Sonny Rollins.
The Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Ensemble includes pianist Murray Low, bassist David Belove, drummer Paul Van Wagenigen, percussionist Michael Spiro and, of course, Wayne Wallace on trombone.
