Default OT music smells

go to the Blackhawk that night, taking the late Greyhound back home. It
was a jazz club that had a cage like area where under drinking age kids
could sit. I saw a lot of big name jazz musicians there, over those
early teen years.


In New Yawk, at Birdland, they called that the Peanut Gallery.
I saw Monk there once....and a few other such groups. And then,
in the mid-60s, LSD music from S. Francisco put jazz out of bidness.
....not that I didn't like Country Joe McDonald and all those other
totally weird groups.....like the Anonymous Artists of America,
the Ragamuffins and the Darma Ding Dongs. But they weren't
worth the end of widespread jazz music.

There were some good parts to the 60s. And lot's of bad stuff,
like Nixon and the war and the demise of our best music.
