The Route 1 Auto Mile is a major artery for car buying in greater Boston
REGION – To those not familiar with the area, anyone driving along a certain stretch of U.S. Route 1 southwest of Boston may surmise it is a premiere destination for car shoppers. They would not be wrong. Cleverly dubbed the Auto Mile, the road is dotted with a wide variety of vehicle dealerships from Norwood to Westwood to Dedham and it really took off with the car buying mania in the 1950s and 1960s. Having convenient proximity to Boston made Route 1 the perfect spot for car sales. As traffic increased over time, so did the number of dealerships who planted roots.

Concert Preview: Dweezil Zappa Carries the Torch for His Father
Celebrating 20 years of keeping Frank Zappa’s complex music alive, Dweezil brings the DZ20: Like Father, Like Son Tour to Medford’s Chevalier Theatre. Musical iconoclast Frank Zappa died in 1993. Thirteen years later, his son Dweezil, fearful that his father’s audience—a Boomer blend of sophisticates and stoners—was dying out, took the reins in assembling a band to play the elder Zappa’s extraordinary repertoire. Though Frank left us at the tender age of 52, he was a prolific composer of unusual, if not impossible, breadth and complexity. Partly because of that—and partly because of the salty language he was known for—radio has generally stayed away from his music, except for rare novelty pieces such as “Don’t Eat the Yellow Snow,” “Dancin’ Fool,” and “Valley Girl.” In 2006, Dweezil, wielding the optimal mix of genetic makeup and musical talent, took on this considerable challenge.
