...after six stunning tunes. The band improved with her very first number, skillfully backing her on When Sunny Gets Blue; then it left the stage to join the enthusiastic (if regrettably small) audience to hear Mrs. Filo do the rest of her numbers with a piano, bass and drums trio. She concluded the brilliant first set with "an imitation of Eartha Kitt singing I Want to Be Bad" which was all Filo--no Kitt.
