Otis Redding, also known as the King of Soul, was on an upward trajectory in his music career when it was cut short due to his untimely death at just 26 years old. Redding recorded his first single, “These Arms of Mine,” in 1962, and the song catapulted to the No. 20 position on the R&B music charts the following year. His success gave way to more opportunities, and he was able to reach a broader audience. Initially, Redding performed small-scale gigs in the South to a predominantly Black audience, but his incredible talent and charisma soon made him popular with the white crowd.

	For fans of American roots music, the Mississippi John Hurt Museum in Avalon, Mississippi, may have been housed inside a 200-year-old shack with a tin roof—it was the childhood home of the late great bluesman—but it was living in an edifice as beautiful and inspiring as the Louvre, the Guggenheim Bilbao, or the Tate.




	And now it’s gone, burnt to the ground, lost forever along with all the irreplaceable John Hurt memorabilia such as recordings, guitars and more, probably the work of local racist vandals, but good luck finding any authorities in hot pursuit, as they say in the movies.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.
