Peter Friedman Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 A highly historic venue in the history of jazz in Detroit. The photo showing Joe Henderson, Kirk Lightsey, Herman Wright and Roy Brooks that is part of the article, is a classic. I feel fortunate to have seen all 4 of those musicians playing in Detroit while I was living there many decades ago. Mark, thanks for sharing this article.
