From the late 1930s to the early 1960s, Charlie’s Place was a Myrtle Beach nightspot owned by Charlie Fitzgerald and his wife, Sarah. Early Motown performers brought their music to Charlie’s Place in the days before integration. It provided a place for African-American artists of the day to perform. This segment explores the ever increasing popularity for the musical movement known as "Rythm and Blues" and the invention of the jukebox. Part of the "Charlie's Place" series.
