Ealing Jazz Club

Ealing Jazz Club

The Ealing Jazz Club was opened in January 1959 in the basement of 42A Ealing Broadway Ealing. London, England initially as “a backstairs session at the moist hoist”. On 17 March 1962, known as The Ealing Club it became London’s first regular R&B venue with a performance by the seminal Alexis Korner and Cyril Davies band Blues Incorporated.

The Club is noteworthy as the place where on 7 April 1962 Alexis Korner introduced Mick Jagger and Keith Richard to Brian Jones and the nucleus of the The Rolling Stones first came together.

Other regular musicians at the Saturday night sessions included Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, Charlie Watts, Graham Bond, Long John Baldry, Rod Stewart, Dick Heckstall-Smith and Paul Jones. The Who played there early in their career when they were known as The Detours.

Sometimes referred to as the Ealing Blues Club, the venue is currently a nightclub called The Red Room, formerly known as Club Azur.
