Description - Ronnie Scott's 1959-69: Photographs by Freddy Warren by Graham Marsh
Ronnie Scott's in London is one of the world's most celebrated jazz clubs and this book marks the club's 60th anniversary. Freddy Warren began photographing Ronnie Scott's when it was still a building site and went on to photograph every happening at the club for over ten years. This is the first time his vast archive has been accessed and nearly all images are completely unseen. Photographs of Ronnie warming his hands around a fire on the building site and inspecting walls are followed by performance shots of the greats of jazz including 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. It will be accompanied by an exhibition at The Barbican in London in fall 2019.
