Description
When Duane Abbajay took over his brother’s bankrupt nightclub in 1962, he promised his wife it would be a quick turnaround to protect his family’s name. Instead, he became the face of the bar that transformed Toledo’s entertainment scene and inspired a Grammy-winning country song – all under the thumb of a trigger-happy mafia boss.
Emotional, theatrical, and dripping with nostalgia, A Bar in Toledo is a love letter to the golden age of American music – and dark underworld that made it all possible.
