Description: On the back cover of their 1975 self-titled album, Manhattan Transfer are frozen mid-stride at the corner of 2nd Avenue and East 10th Street, looking like they’ve just stepped out of a smoky jazz club and onto an East Village movie set. The scene captures a pre-glossy New York, when doo-wop, vocal jazz, and street-corner theater all mingled on the same block, and the band’s retro suits and tight harmonies felt perfectly at home among the worn brick and neon. Standing on this corner today, you can almost hear their four-part blend bouncing off the tenements and disappearing up 2nd Avenue. This landmark is one of the featured stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
