@BeschlossDC wonder where those women are now
@BeschlossDC Cynthia looking happy
.@BeschlossDC Fun photo, but small correction: Chubby Checker may (or may not) have performed at Peppermint Lounge, but doubt it was his.
.@BeschlossDC Had relatives who worked there -- "funny" NY place astutely chronicled in essay by Tom Wolfe.
.@BeschlossDC Basically, it was tiny bar, east of Times Sq run by working class Italians from NJ . . .
.@BeschlossDC . . . latched on to "Twist" dance craze, and when dance became phenom, Peppermint Lounge became socialite & celeb place to go.
.@BeschlossDC After hitting big time, Peppermint Lounge expanded to storefront to east, but never really all that big physically.
