A note on addresses: wherever possible I have included cross streets,
using the following notation:

A/B--on A near the intersection with B
A n/B--on A north of B (or south, east, west)
A/B&C--on A between B and C

In some cases, the intersection is not necessarily the closest one,
but the closest major cross street.
This list will be posted periodically or when major  changes  are
made.   It will also be mailed on request in response to email or
rec.music.bluenote requests.  Any new information or  corrections
can be sent to:
