MICHAEL FEINSTEIN PLAYED JIMMY McHUGH'S 'WHERE ARE YOU' AND OLD BLUE EYES CHIMED IN

The Huffington Post recently ran a terrific article about the inimitable Michael Feinstein and his newest album, The Sinatra Project, Vol. II.
The piece, written by Dustin Fitzharris, describes how  Michael's friendship with 'Old Blue Eyes' began.
Here's an excerpt:

"The first time they met, he was hired to play at a party for Sinatra's wife (Barbara). At one point in the evening, Marvin Davis, who owned 20th Century Fox at the time, disappeared. Sinatra yelled out, 'Where did Marvin go? Where did the bum go?' 

A young Feinstein took the cue and began playing the Jimmy McHugh song, 'Where Are You?' 

Sinatra started belting the tune out in full voice. (Feinstein likes to fondly say that he accompanied Sinatra for two bars.) Later in the evening Sinatra, who was amazed how someone so young knew so many classic songs, invited Feinstein to sit down and talk. Hearing Sinatra tell stories left Feinstein speechless."
