Small Town Framingham Peppermint Lounge New York and Miami

http://youtu.be/MSV0_ll_3AQ   My friend +Thurley Henderson and I wanted to see the famous Peppermint Lounge in Miami, when my Mom was living there in the early 60's.  It was a crazy place where people did the twist, and other fad dances.  There was  a railing around the dance floor which  was used as a dance location for a  handsome man dancer, who introduced the main act, Chubby Checker...The dancer twisted and turned along the railing...It was a one time visit to see how the other side lived....we did not know that a gangster owned the club.
