...clever performer. Most of his act consists of imitations of other country singers and of a few who aren't country. And he knows how to talk to an audience. He told stories about how his brother done his wife wrong by staying too late in the Four-way Grill in Memphis and calling home and telling her he was working late, and she walked out on him taking all the furniture. He did his version of Conway Twitty, and damn if two blondes, with piled-up hair-dos like you see at Wallace rallies, didn't stand and shout...

...Radcliffe life mate of your dreams there. But the Hilles Coffee Shop is full of library users taking a study break, and God knows they aren't attracted exclusively by the food--which is pretty skimpy. Ice cream, pre-packaged cookies and brownies, doughnuts, and other standard House grill fare is about all that is offered.
