Blues on Halstad located across the street and up a bit from the Kingston Mines, in the city of Chicago IL. It has been closed now for a few years, but when it was open, it had Magic. What is the magic, well:
Two gentle souls from New West hope on a plane and fly to Chicago, not too long after Obama was elected. We ended up checking out the Blues Bars, Kingston Mines, Buddy Guys and an open mike night at Blues.
The Magic, Great musicians, great atmosphere and a great sounds. So great that two, a little bit drunk, gentle souls from New West are riding the El back to our hotel at 3:30 ish in the morning,
The memory is still sweet after a few of years and is an affirmation of life. Thank you, Big Lou! Thank you life!
