The Bitter End: Hanging Out at America's Nightclub
The Bitter End, the famous Greenwich Village coffeehouse turned nightclub, has hosted artists including Woody Allen, Neil Young, Carly Simon and Pete Seeger since the '60s. Paul Colby has managed the club since 1968 and, with coauthor Martin Fitzpatrick, he presents The Bitter End: Hanging Out at America's Nightclub. In the foreword, rocker Kris Kristofferson calls the Bitter End "something of a shrine." Colby and Fitzpatrick explain how the club earned that reputation, from its role as showcase of newly emerging folk music 40 years ago to its present status as a music landmark.
