For one night only, TAKE 5: A Tribute to Great Men of Jazz will be at Aretha’s Jazz Café on January 27.

    TAKE 5: A Tribute to Great Men of Jazz features world-class trumpeter David Greene, who’s played with The Temptations, The Dramatics, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, and The Clark Sisters, honoring the beloved Louis Armstrong.
