    There are many that I love(d), but does anyone remember the Delbert McClinton free-at-noon? Not only was it amazing to see and hear a wonderful performance by someone who has been around for quite a long time, but his band was exceptional and they played well beyond 1:00… I sadly had to leave for a luncheon appt. but was so impressed with this performance.
