I've only been once, in 2007. Kenny Barron was playing. It was very enjoyable and I'd like to go back soon.
I recently read that Shelly Manne tried to recreate the atmosphere of Ronnie Scott's with his club 'Shelly's Manne Hole'.
Always loved Scotts. When I worked in London in the 60's it was a magnet for me (this was long before I was involved with a certain musician) Heard some of the best musicians and vocalists.
The high point for me was when my daughter sat in with the resident band for a couple of numbers. I was so proud and felt the photographs on the walls, of all the stars who have appeared there were looking down approvingly, smiling at her and wishing her well.
The photographic evidence is there on her myspace. Normally the management refuse to allow photographs to be taken. When I explained how important one photo would be for her Dad who was unable to travel...the manager gave his approval.
