Let's see, Tee's (thankfully) short lived Jheri Curl days... maybe 1979 or there abouts. Check out the brother with the "Russell" (Cosby kids) hat in the second photo.

I was going to mention that but I thought I better not. My comment was going to be something like "wasn't he afraid of getting the Jheri curl juice all over his records?"

wow! This is great. I have to send this to a friend of mine who used to frequent BD. David's last name, btw, is Depino. Can someone school me on something? Was BD a gay club or was it's lengendary status come from a gay night at a straight club?

I don't know for sure. I think it's the former, but I'll wait for one of you guys to comment.

I would say that it was primarily a gay club.
(Anyone, Correct me if I'm wrong).
If you loved Tee's music, it didn't matter.
You'd go to wherever he was playing. A Roller rink, the Garage, Zanzibars, His own club, a club in a not to safe neighborhood. Or, just chill and listen to him on the WBLS radio station. The music was too good for anything else to matter. (IMHO)

now try and guess what tracks larry is playing!

Is that a young Jimmy Smits in the middle of that crowd?

Some nights the BD got rough, as in rough necks. Yes, you had your share of effeminate guys, but in the BD, even the out-and-out drag queens were tough.
