AT BERLIN'S—Last Sunday, Larry Smith teamed up with his wife, Christine Cordone, at the Sunday Showcase, upstairs at the A&B Lobster House. This week (Sunday, Dec. 5, 9 p.m.) he's teaming with his daughter, Journey Blue Heaven. (He swears that's her name.) The young singer, songwriter, and guitarist lives in Woodstock, New York. She'll perform some jazz, pop, rock, some songs written by her parents (Smith and Christine Cordone), as well as some of her own originals.
SATURDAY NIGHT— Returning with a vengeance to the Green Parrot stage is Mississippi-born bluesman Grady Champion, appearing tomorrow night, Saturday, Dec. 4, 10 p.m. Champion's approach to the blues is like testifying in an old-fashioned gospel church. His harmonica playing is raw and high-energy, and he sings with a powerful, grit and cornsilk voice.
