This renowned West End basement club started life as Feldman Swing Club and quickly became a mecca for jazz fans. David Bowie, Louis Armstrong, Jimi Hendrix, the Rolling Stones, Sex Pistols and Oasis are some of the major artists who have graced the stage. At one point in the 1970s, it even had a Chinese takeaway inside the club, wedged in between the male and female toilets.
