Bourbon Lullaby
by Velvet Monroe
A smoky late-night jazz recording restored from a damaged reel tape discovered inside the abandoned Blue Note Club archives.
“Bourbon Lullaby” is one of Velvet Monroe’s most intimate torch ballads — a haunting noir jazz confession wrapped in whiskey, cigarette smoke, and lonely midnight memories. Featuring soft piano, upright bass, muted trumpet, brushed drums, and Velvet’s signature smoky vocal delivery, this rare live recording captures the heartbreak and melancholy that made her one of the most mysterious voices of the early 1960s.
Some songs don’t help you forget.
They help you survive the night.
Recorded Live — Winter 1961
Restored From Original Archival Tape
