First we go to "Ma Bea's" on West Madison, then to "Golden Slipper" on South Pulaski, next to "Big Duke‘s" on West Side to end up back at "Ma Bee's" with your head and heart overﬂowing with the stirring, exciting and ever tonic sounds of Jimmy Dawkins, Eddie Taylor, Fred Below, Alabama Junior Pettis with "Magic Slim's Teardrops", Hip Lankchan, John Littlejohn, Jimmy Johnson... Enjoy yourself!
