Subject: RE: Favourite Performances You Were Lucky to See
Early 60's. A bunch of us had taken an apartment in Chicago as a party pad. Was on Sedgwick Street about 4 doors North of Lincoln above a club/bar known as Old Town North. I came downstairs to that bar one evening on my way to a gig and Furry Lewis was there. Around 80 years old at the time, he wasn't what he had once been, but it sure was a thrill to see and hear him & his banjo. "Stealin'" & "Walk Right In" never sounded so good.
