Description: This is it, this was the place be at in the late ’50. The first Jazz club at ‘The City’ open up on December 15, 1949 at 1680 Broadway Avenue just north of West 52nd Street in Manhattan. John Coltrane record couple of live LP, Count Basie's Basie at Birdland. Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Louie Bellson, Bud Powell, Johnny Smith, Stan Getz, Lester Young, and Ella Fitzgerald among other jazz celebrities. The clubs were frequented by; Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner, Gary Cooper, Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, Sugar Ray Robinson, Marlene Dietrich, Joe Louis, and other celebrities at that time.
