One of LA's oldest blues clubs, Babe's & Ricky's was founded in the '60s but moved to the heart of Leimert Park a decade ago. Smokin' veteran artists such as Mickey Champion (here every Monday) are well worth a look, as is house band Bill Clark & the Mighty Balls of Fire. Club owner Laura Mae Gross is now in her eighties, but still works the room.
