Otto Graham was the quarterback for the Cleveland Browns in the 1950's, and led them to multiple national championships. In 1999 the Sporting News listed him as #7 on their list of the greatest NFL players of all time.

I love the picture of Vikki Carr, as she is one of my favorite singers. Those of you have Capital's Ultra Lounge Series may remember her voice from the 'Crime Scene' CD. Vikki sings the Burlesque sounding song 'The Silencers' to a great Elmer Bernstein arrangement. The song's lyrics include ....

"But if you should see a lady who,
Has the kind of waist that measures twenty-two,
And she's thirty-eight where it is great to measure 38,
Dear Sir: She is a Silencer"
Dear Sir: I'm Her"

That song was from the soundtrack to the Dean Martin 'Matt Helm' spy film.

I love the photos and history of the Volcano -- and now I wonder if it is possible that Vikki Carr actually sang 'The Silencers' that night at the Volcano .... it wouldn't get any better than that.
