Beautiful ! very grateful for the upload. Included in this comment is some excerpts from an article about the chitlin circuit legendary club in Pittsburgh called the Hurricane Club . for full article click on link below " The Hurricane was an oasis island in the sea of prejudice and segregation of the 1950s and 1960s. The Midway and other downtown Pittsburgh clubs featured many of the same acts that played clubs in the Hill, but unwritten segregation rules shut African Americans jazz fans out. The musicians union often kept African American artists from working the down town clubs. Clubs like the Hurricane and the Crawford Grill welcomed a diverse set of jazz fans and provided work for African American jazz artists. The Hurricane’s great jazz scene drew crowds from the Hill District neighborhood and from all over Western, Pa. Frequenting the club were young and old, white and black, blue collar and white collar, the famous and the common, the upper crust and the under crust all side by side as described by Ann Butler of the Pittsburgh Press. Birdie told Ann Butler “I just can’t explain it to you because segregation and prejudice was rampant. But everybody would be sitting together in the same booths. And I had a good time with ‘em.” Birdie Dunlap provided a welcoming safe atmosphere for everyone to socialize.
