Bobby "Blue" Bland: Phelps' Lounge, Detroit MI
Frank Bach, The Ann Arbor Sun, 15 July 1976
JUST ABOUT every time a holiday rolls around nowadays, Bobby "Blue" Bland can be found singing down at Phelps' Lounge, a comfortable nightclub located in an otherwise bleak section of Oakland Avenue near Holbrook. This is a wonderful arrangement for Detroiters, because Bobby Bland is an internationally-respected rhythm and blues artist who happens to be just as strong, self-confident, and polished now as he's ever been during his storied 25 year career.
