At one point Harlem was the epicenter of culture that defined New York for generations. I went to college in Harlem (Spanish Harlem, a bit more north actually) for a while. My parents used to go on dates there in the 1950's to long defunct jazz clubs like Small's Paradise and The Big Apple Grill. The Big Apple Grill is actually how NYC came to be known as "The Big Apple" because when American Jazz cats would play in Europe and they'd say to eachother- "see you back at the `Big Apple, man."Keefyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08387099583567049131noreply@blogger.com
