A weird collision of media sources. One of the books I purchased yesterday was "What it takes to be a Grandmaster" by Andrew Soltis. The very first chapter is on the 'Extended Luft' and features a game by Berliner v Fischer. The game was played in Bay City, Michigan in 1963. While reading it, I was also watching a documentary on the Scottish music scene. And while they my not say this bit out loud, one of the biggest band of the 70's was the 'Bay City Rollers'. And to close this loop, they were of course named after 'Bay City, Michigan'
Western Open, 1963
