I want to get in a time machine and go back just to see all these great acts. Slim Gaillard, Nellie Lutcher, Edith Piaf, Art Blakey, Chet Baker, Buddy Colette. Plus all those crazy Burli-Q joints. And there's an article about the extradition of Confidential magazine's editor to LA. Great Page!

Can you please give me the date--with the day of the week--of this page?
