The album features songs from Fiddler on the Roof and Gigi, as well as original material. Mr. Finkel's great humor, storytelling ability and zest for life is abundant in performance."

Billy Porter (Grease, and Dreamgirls and Hair concerts) will be the September 28th guest.  "The explosive Broadway star will be presenting highlights from his live album At the Corner of Broadway + Soul. The sold out concert was preserved by Sh-K-Boom Records, but you can experience this energetic performer live at Tower."
