Stevie was a huge part of Chicago's folk scene. Check the thread titled Who Is Steve Goodman.

I've mentioned in various threads that CLAY EALS of Seattle is working on what ought to be a wonderful biography of Steve Goodman. I'm really looking forward to it.

Also, the section of Lincoln Ave. in Chicago where the Old Town School Of Folk Music is now located was designated STEVE GOODMAN WAY (or something like that). The street is actually still Lincoln Ave. but it was a nice tribute to a fine musician and singer I thought.
