Lonnie Brooks a Hit @ the Backlot Bash

Blues musician Lonnie Brooks takes a moment after his hard charging performance to visit Skokie Library. Famous for his "voodoo blues", a combination of his Louisiana roots, the Texas swing, and gettin' down Chicago blues, Lonnie played to a full house. He topped off the night with a duet of Sweet Home Chicago with legendary bluesman Eddy "the Chief" Clearwater, another festival favorite.
