To the delight of an overflow audience at the Bennett Library, Cookie Thomas cast the spell of his magical voice--along with his 3 piece band consisting of bass, drums and key board.
He has an easy going manner and relates intimately with his audience; he is constantly asking:" what would you like to hear next?" And he nearly always is accommodative.
He sang such romantic lilting classics as At Last, My Funny Valentine and What a Wonderful World.
He reminds us that he grew up in Philadelphia where doo wop groups competed en plein air vying for the attention of passersby. Does he ever transport us back to the 50's singing Frankie Lyman's classic Why do Fools Fall in Love and Little Anthony and the Imperials hit Tears on my Pillow.
