Was there a club in the 1930's or 40's called the 'Purple Crackle' in Chicago?
The Purple Crackle was and still is a night club in Southern Illinois. (East Cape Girardeau). Right across the Mississippi river from Cape Girardeau, Mo. It has been there since the 30's or 40's and has been burned down several times over the years by rival club owners and vandals. in the 70's it was a dinner club and had a downstairs disco tech. After that burned in the late 70's they rebuilt and through the 80's it was a dance club with live rock bands performing on the weekends. Yes, the Purple Crackle was indeed a club in East Cape Girardeau, IL, which is about 30 miles north of Cairo, at the very far southern edge of the state. While I was growing up in Cape (the Missouri side) in the 80s and 90s, the Purple Crackle was still burning down every few years. Legend has it that in the 30s and 40s it was indeed a popular hangout for Chicago-based gangsters. The Crackle, which started life as "The Purple Grackle," is closed permanently as of December 31, 2005. Its Chicago connection is the Capone gang, who were behind, among other crimes, the serious gambling along this particular stretch of the Mississippi. Wonderful dance floor. Great for people watching, too; college boys from SEMO danced with the nuns from the convent/school across the river, etc.

What was it like in the Amazing Grace coffeehouse?
Boy, this question brings back memories! I remember seeing Jim Post there in the on-campus Amazing Grace back in '74. It was a very intimate and awesome performance. After that they moved to the Main Street area of Evanston. I remember seeing James Taylor's brother perform there. I dug around and found this comprehensive pdf http://www.library.northwestern.edu/archives/findingaids/Amazingrace.pdf you may want to download. I spent all my Babysitting money on the Amazing Grace Coffee House. I saw amazing performers there. Here's a list I recall: Odetta (I paid about 75 cents to see her), Steve Goodman, John Prine, Livingston Taylor, Sam Leopold, Kenny Bloom, Jim Post, Emmylou Harris, Redwood Landing, and more, but that's all I recall at the moment. It was an amazing place for teens since you could hear incredible performers/musicians and age didn't matter since they didn't serve alcohol. I wish that my 16 year old had a place like this to go. It was one of my fondest memories of childhood. It was a small ranchlike house right on the Northwestern campus and off the lakefront in Evanston. I just recall I was there pretty much every weekend and got all my friends hooked on it. I'm still playing guitar and I owe my interest to the Amazing Grace Coffee House. I hope that someone can put a clip on you tube. It would be great!
