tom and media burn and company. thanks for preserving some of the golden moments I was not alive to experience. you guys do something truly special, and the value seems heightened because of how unknown/grassroots you guys seem.
live it.
Great archival footage, the elderly woman from McCuddy's reminds me a lot of my own grandmother who grew up in Chicago. Her accent is very interesting, it's Chicago plus a bit of a foreign sound, can't quite place it. Thanks for sharing!
Sounds like Irish/Chicago/East Coast US accent. Very interesting.
How good is that? These two were the best. I miss my hometown.
SHE IS A SWEET HEART....
Tom is a good man, though the images of the North Av. O'Rourke's here are brief and dark. He's right, though: go and read Roger Ebert's blog piece on it. That kid can write and that joint was something.
when they took down the mob at edgewater beach hotel, the culture was over. and then Drino sunk the Liberty because she was angry.
