The Story of NYC's Legendary Venue "The Bottom Line"

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Mar 2

The live music venue "The Bottom Line" closed in 2004, 30 years after being a go-to place for everyone from Bruce Springsteen to Gil Scott-Heron. Co-founder Allan Pepper has teamed up with journalist Billy Altman talk about their new book Positively Fourth & Mercer: The Inside Story of New York's Iconic Music Club, and listeners call in to share their Bottom Line memories.
