When Chuck Berry goes to jail, Leonard is able to find another talented performer, Etta James, to take his place. This is not easy since they spend a small fortune on booze, drugs, and the high life. Chess makes all of his artists part of his family and takes care of them. Record producer Leonard Chess has an ear for this different type of music and believes he can cash in by signing up new talent such as songwriter Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf, and Etta James. This eventually gave birth to rock and roll in 1955 with Chuck Berry. In 1947, it began recording blues music with Muddy Waters and Little Walter. |a Chess Records was located on the south side of Chicago. |a Adrien Brody, Jeffrey Wright, Gabrielle Union, Columbus Short, Cedric the Entertainer, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Eamonn Walker, Mos Def, Beyoncé Knowles.

So we flew home to Orlando and rented a car for over a week then flew back to Bangor when the Escalade car was ready. And rates were out of site if they were available. It was the peak of this past fall's peak leaf season so no rental cars and no hotel rooms were available. Why didn't WE know about it? We were stuck in Bangor, Maine with a dealership with no loaners to offer and no ability to reliably estimate an ETR ("Maybe a couple of weeks"). NOW, our review of the engine: Our first real road trip in our beautiful new Escalade ended 1,500 miles away from home with bent valve lifters and broken valves on just shy of 6,000 miles: a problem that Cadillac and its dealers knew all about with GM's 420 hp V-8 gas engines.
