The Deep Doo Wop Freeze, Part 4

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 The heat is on. I love the bustling tourist season, but when the heat persists, I reach for the photos of our brutal winter and psychologically cool myself.

Stella Star was there on October 18th, 1969 (or, was that 2025?), wearing her warmer “Populuxe” three-piece ensemble as the cooler weather sets in. The Fountain Sign, with its…
