So there you have it. Lightnin' Hopkins did actually appear west of Main in the early '60s.
(2305 S. Shepherd is now that 10-story white building. 2509 Udemi is no longer a street.)
I spent many a Saturday night listening to Hopkins in the mid 60s. Then around midnight the local jazz musicians would come in. The 1st song was always Bessame Mucho. Miguel would sing.
