Many entertainers launched their careers at Ciro�s Nightclub; often referred as �The Nightclub of the Stars.� Ciro�s was patronized by both famous and non-famous guests who enjoyed dancing; dining; and comedy routines featuring top-name entertainers such as Jerry Lewis; Dean Martin; Sophie Tucker; Judy Garland; Peggy Lee; Liberace; Nat King Cole; Joe E. Lewis; and Sammy Davis Jr.�just to name a few. The nightclub�s house band was led by Dick Stabile; although bandleader Xavier Cugat; best known for popularizing the rumba in the United States; was a regular headliner at the club. The elite Hollywood regulars at Ciro�s included some of the most popular names in entertainment at the time; such as Marilyn Monroe; Frank Sinatra; Cary Grant; Humphrey Bogart; and many more.

Five StarsBy MickJust the book I needed to look up information4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Great documentation on Rockford; IL; what used to be and what does not exist.By Andy WhorehallRockford; IL is one of the worst places to live in N. America. It didnt used to be this way. When the trains went away; so did manufacturing and jobs. This is a great reminder pictorial history why Rockford; IL used to matter to the rest of the country- and another great FYI; history lesson on the death of an American city.
