Last night we visited Buddy Guy’s Legends on the south side of Chi-town to watch a show by the harmonica toting Charlie Musselwhite. The show was fantastic with the exception of two individuals that could not figure out the sound board. The feedback was pretty terrible at times. Charlie made it a strong point informing the two to cut his harmonica out of the monitors.
Unfortunately the club has lost its lease and will have to move by June 07. The owner of the building where Legends operates, Columbia College, wants to use the space for a student center. Over the years Legends has played host to numerous iconic musicians. Signed paraphernalia line the walls included a large painting of a blues Mount Rushmore with Robert Johnson, Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters and B.B. King. I hope their new home is as fun as the old.
