There was Jimmy's on 67th Street and the Palm Tavern on 47th near South Park (now King Drive), but those were blues clubs. Muddy Waters was a regular at both during my college days. Paul


wow lucky you -- neither of those names rings a bell....
I hung out at the College of Complexes on State street in the near north -- where Bill Broonzy performed and I was lucky to know him... I had no idea at the time how big a name he was in the blues world... folks performed there as well... as did I (not singing - that would have been awful!) what a great place it was... the bug house orators came there too... and it is where I learned Scrabble. We played Charades for money... and I sometimes co-hosted audience quizzes. where the prizes were in bar tokens.
get so nostalgic around this time of year.

Of course I went to the Green Mill --- but my first response was about anotehr jazz club on the south side... At the moment I can't remember who I heard or how often I went there but I was definitely flying with a crown in my youth that did... makes me want to get out the dairy I kept in the 50's I went to a lot of places when I was 16 to 17 years old with older friends - I
looked older and no one ever asked me for ID.

1) I wanted to get some nice shots of the famous Green Mill interior for the our good PDML folks in and from Chicago--you know, a neighborly gesture. Well, I've come up empty handed.
