DDeath: Al Jarreau's home was just up the road from you in Milwaukee (another great midwestern city from times past).

Lunch tomorrow? How about that Rock & Roll Mickey Deez down in the Loop?

No way Tex! We usually take our two youngest grandkids to Mickey D's once a week for lunch...…… and I can barely bear that much of that food!

How about we go to Portillo's for a beef sandwich or a hot dog? Much better food...…….

Some 50's...…….. if you have time!

Holy Shitz, cuz I slept too late this morn'en and missed my flight to Chicago! Maybe next week... The Portillo's option sound right good to me.

Right good, cuz Hell Yes it does! http://www.portillos.com/index.html

You know, except for a major coin show in Chicago a few years ago, I haven't taken the time to hit the city in over 30 years. I'm sure things have changed...

I'll listen to the round of 50s music later this evening.

Summer hit us today, and it's HOT as Hell near Big Bend and South to the Texas border! 91 today, 98 on Friday, and 100 on Saturday.

Now it gets right HOT in DDeath's Chicago, but the intensity of the Sun down here in my home area is simply brutal!

Anyway, for the Summer, here's a fine instrumental from Percy Faith going back to ~ 1960.

Tex, Portillo's has great food, including hot dogs. beef sandwiches, Italian sausage, burgers, and a lot more delicious food! it is our favorite place to eat and only two miles to our nearest location.

It started out as a small stand (see picture) in 1963. It has grown to more than 40 locations in the Chicago area and has a couple locations in AZ, CA, and Fl.

One of my brothers-in-law helped build that small stand in the picture. He wishes he could have gotten a piece of the business, instead of a few bucks. The original owner sold part of the business in 2011 for 74 million.

My Texas bro-in-law is hoping for a branch down in Houston!

Some 1963 hits...……

DDeath,

Great story and memories.

My younger brother (now deceased) graduated from high school is 1962. I remember all of these hits, but the Duke of Earl was a real standout...

It's a Sunday closure, unless Dazed or DDeath care to do the sign-off.

I can't help but to go back to Petula Clark. I've got a handful of favorite female vocals, but this lady might just take the #1 slot. What a beautiful woman!
