Used to luv Ethel Ennis doing ‘Freakers Ball’ & she luved doing it! It would bring the whole Tavern up. Also remember Earl ‘Fatha’ Hines getting out into the audience during a song & ‘playing’ the glasses, plates & candle holders. Luved Junior Mance, RIP. Had pleasure of seeing him & Monty Alexander together in concert @ the Ark in Ann Arbor, Mi. Heaven!!
