Oh wow... I've never seen footage of my great grandpa Big John. Thanks for posting!

This 2nd version of Elsewhere was in the 3100 block of N. Clark St., a bit below Belmont. I think it was probably '76 or maybe '77, I don't recall exactly. It was the start of many great nights at that location, that then later moved, and today is known as "Blues" on N. Halsted St. I was on bass in this video, keeping out of the way!

Great stuff Gerree! I saw many great gigs at both Elsewhere's(and the 1st Kingston Mines) during my dozens of blues excursions to Chicago from my hometown of Milwaukee during the mid/late 70s.I do believe that Bill who did the bookings at EW now is the owner of Bill's Blues in Evanston.

I booked this guy in Liverpool when he toured Europe n the mid-70's. Never thought I'd see him again. Great posting!

Believe it was 78' or 79' on Chicago's Northside. It was the grand opening of Elsewhere's 2nd bar (this 3 day event provided alot of good musicians jamming).
