This page is simply my favorite Blues links for anybody who wonders what the Blues are all about. Chicago is my hometown and although I've lived in western Ohio, San Francisco, and the Arkansas delta, I never missed the blues because there was always Detroit, Cleveland, Oakland, Memphis, or Helena close by. What I do miss is hot pizza and cold weather although Memphis barbeque goes a long way toward getting over the food thing.
So ... this page has lots of Blues to listen to, music links, a site where you can order real Chicago deep dish pizza (or download the receipe and bake it yourself), and just for me when I'm really homesick; 5 live cameras online from the loop (updated every 5 minutes by WGN) so I can see when it's snowing. So take a listen to the blues....it's the real thing!
