Just to set the record straight, the editorial review is a bit misleading:
3 Star Rating: Average

The great famous photo of the Muddy Waters Band jamming with the Rolling Stones was actually taken at Richard Harding's club,"The Quiet Knight", not 'The Checkerboard". The Quiet Knight, by this time, had moved from its original and long-time "Old Town" home on North Wells Street to its last , and relatively abrupt, stay on West Belmont Avenue.
