For those lucky enough to live in or near Chicago or are visiting this may be of interest.

There is an exhibit of pictures of Jazz greats from the 30-40's at the Chicago Historical Society. See the link below:

They also have perfomances from 6-9 PM every Thursday through Sept. for $8. See link below:

I have no ties to the society. Thought it might be of interest.

I've seen those pics John,they are great.I recently attended a private showing of pics taken at the old Sutherland Lounge at the Sutherland hotel.It was amazing to see photgraphs of Miles,Coltrane,Dizzie and Billie Holiday.I pass by that place all the time and find the hsitory of places like this fascinating.
