THE BLUES ROUTE By Hugh Merrill Morrow, $17.95 Nonfiction
Blues Harbor is a nightclub in Atlanta's Buckhead district, a glittering cornpone Beverly Hills on the north side of town. It's about a mile away from Neiman-Marcus and Lord & Taylor and even closer to the Texas State Line Barbecue, where a plate of ribs costs twelve dollars. In the 1920s, Barbecue Bob and Charlie Lincoln worked in Buckhead at another more reasonably priced barbecue stand that served Georgia pork rather than smoked Texas beef. When they weren't cleaning windshields and serving barbecue, they played and recorded the blues.
