Ronnie Scott's 1959-69 : Photographs by Freddy Warren

Ronnie Scott's 1959-69 - Book - by G. Marsh, S. Whittle

(2019)


Ronnie Scott's in London is one of the world's most celebrated jazz clubs and this book marks the club's 60th anniversary. This is the first time photographer Freddy Warren's vast archive has been accessed and nearly all images are completely unseen. Photographs of Ronnie warming his hands around a fire and inspecting walls on the building site at Frith Street are followed by performance shots of the greats of jazz at both the "old" and "new" Soho locations. Warren captured Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Duke Ellington, Nina Simone and many more. Powerful on stage portraits are accompanied by relaxed off-stage moments, such as Yusef Lateef holding an impromptu meeting around soup pots in the kitchen. This book is a warm and intimate portrait of a legendary jazz venue.
