I'm new to DetroitYES so forgive me if I'm in the wrong section, but here goes.

I grew up in Detroit in the 50s and 60s [[Redford High School -56 - and U. of D. - 61). I did see some comments on Cregar's Pickwick House located at Grand River and Outer Drive which I frequented in the early to mid fifties. Indeed it was a big Rosedale Park hangout with a decent menu. Does anyone else remember an item on their menu called a swankie frankie? It was a weiner sliced down the middle with cheese in it [[I think). It was delicious!

Baker's Keyboard Lounge on Livernois Ave, right? In the early 60s [[after I was 21), I remember seeing - and hearing - June Christy at Baker's. There were all kinds of jazz clubs around Detroit in those days including one I recall on Seven Mile Road near Greenfield [[or Southfield). Usually featured a piano player and/or guitar player and a female vocalist. Very soothing and relaxing. Anyone remember the name of that place?
