Stanley Bard Hard at Work at the Chelsea Hotel

Some things never change. Here's Jerry Weinstein in 1981 looking the same as ever.  Unfortunately, though, some things do change.  In this nine minute clip from the 1981 BBC Arena documentary, Chelsea Hotel, you'll find Stanley Bard hard at work.  Now days you couldn't find a General Manager if your life depended on it -- chiefly because Marlene Krauss won't hire one. Bring Back the Bards.  P.S. Does anybody know the white-haired telephone operator?  That was a bit before our time.
