    Purple Onion? Wasn't that a blues club in CA in the 70s?

    Seems I remember hearing of the Beatles playing there or something!

    Somebody give me some onion rings quick and some slushies. I need it. The kids have been crazy today. Slushies take me away!

    I see y'all truly are children of the 60's as you don't remember where the Purple Onion is/was - it's in SAN FRANCISCO! In fact, I think it's still around, although I haven't been there in eons.

    Catty1, I actually have that album! Also, Bob Newhart performed a lot of his comedy routines there.
