There was a time in Long Island's cultural history when the whole world looked here in New York for the next big trend in rock 'n' roll. That was between 1974 and 1980, the heyday of My Father's Place, a cabaret in Roslyn. Michael Epstein, known as Eppy, ran the whole shebang. Along with My Father's Place, which opened on Memorial Day in 1971 with a concert by Richie Havens, a confluence of entities created a scene that would influence music for decades to come. The New York Times, August 27, 2000. Between 1971 and 1987, My Father’s Place presented more than 6,000 shows from over 3,000 diverse artists. It was the premier venue for original local talent and an essential tour stop for established national acts. During its prolific era, the club presented an unmatched and unforgettable range of talent in rock, jazz, fusion, country, punk, soul, reggae, folk, and comedy. The club was especially known for as a place for aspiring artists such as Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Aerosmith, Billy Joel, Charlie Daniels, Linda Ronstadt, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Tom Petty, and so many more. Not just musicians, but young comedians like Billy Crystal, Eddie Murphy, and Andy Kaufman also got their start there.
Tonight my daughter had the opportunity to be part of the history of the new “My Fathers Place” now known as the Roslyn Cellar. She showed everybody that New York Never Dies…
I could not have been any prouder of her…
For all of you that have remained loyal and have followed her journey you know that when She gets on that stage something magical happens… The crowd engages and the show gets taken to another level…
this is one of those moments folks …
