Dennis Diken's avatar View Dennis Diken's profile Favoriting

Step into Denny’s Den to give yourself a little lift as you make your way through the busy day. Or take a break and make the world go away for a while. Dig on platters a-plenty, from The Chantels to Del Shannon, The Small Faces to Jimmy Reed. And so much more. Maybe some Basie and Kenton? Relax. You’ve earned it!

They were on tour together with some other acts and they each think they won a card game and are owed money. So at the next gas stop, they pull out their guns and start shooting at each other! Johnny Taylor had to simmer them down.

@Sal, Thanks for that.
Keep reading Mojo magazine!

Was that in Mojo? I heard about it in a Billy Stewart PBS documentary.
