Dear FOREVER 5th DIMENSION global fans & friends,

*COOL CROONIN’ by Robert-Allan Arno, featuring 10 tunes including “Do Nothin’ till You Hear from Me,” “Rio de Janeiro Blue,” “The Nearness of You,” “Summertime,” “Skylark,” “What a Wonderful World,” “Nuit et Jour (Night and Day),” “Where or When” (Dedicated to The Original 5th Dimension), and just in time for Christmas, “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” more.

7-time Grammy winners Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr. say, “Robert-Allan is adventurous, taking notes where he wants them to go, he’s free where he places his feelings, making the listener feel it, too. Makes us think of some of the great legends —Herb Jeffries, Louis Armstrong in some places. Wonderful jazz inflections. A beautiful deep voice which catches the ear.”

Again, the cost is $25.00, and 100% of the profit goes to AAHEF. Available at this Stripe link:

LaMonte McLemore adds, “Robert sings with a whole lotta Soul. Mieko and I love to listen to COOL CROONIN’ in our home, ‘Rio de Janeiro Blue” is one of our favorites!”

“From my living room to yours, I’m so pleased to share these ‘favorite to sing with a jazz trio’ 10 tunes, with all proceeds going to a very special cross-cultural foundation.”Robert-Allan Arno❤
