I was looking for an older thread to add this link to but the hip-hop post didn't seem appropriate.

First Look: Light on the South Side - Chicagoist

Last May the Trib did a 9-page insert dedicated to the photos included in the link but they were not released until now (as a preview of a book the photographer - Michael Abramson - is putting out in Autumn). There are some gems spanning the nightclub scene from 1965-1976

Some of these are a wonderful glimpse into the past. I figured a few of you might even have partaken in this scene, so, perhaps a trip down memory road is called for.

Oh my god, a piece of my near-past is already "vintage"

I want to die now

EDIT: Oh, I looked at the link. It's from the late sixties, early seventies. I love how everyone is dressed.

You and I are not far apart so if I'd be doing it to myself too.

But, OMG can I just say how cute Miley and Nick Jonas are as a couple!!?? What was Earth like before Twitter. Like, really?

It was a golden era, when you could still get a goddamn martini on your ride home and sink into oblivion on the L.
