Anyone familiar with this film about the 1369 Jazz Club in Boston

Given that the Black Death was in full flow I wouldn't have thought gatherings of excited Bebop fans would have been approved by the authorities.

This was most likely the venue:

Burning witches was more the thing to do on a Saturday night round there.

Hello all. back in the day, later 1970's-mid-80's, the 1369 Jazz Club

in Inman Square, Cambridge, MA, was the joint, where it went down-

local musicians coming up, New York cats doing it, everyone throwing

down for the music. Incredible place and time for the music; I was

fortunate to be part of that scene!

This is a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds to bring an incredible

documentary to light, footage from the day at the 1369. This is

important work:

Thanks Steve. The minute you posted it to Facebook I went over to the site and contributed to the project. I can't remember if I went there but it was an important part of Boston jazz history. When did it go out of the of jazz biz?

I really hope people contribute as it seems to be off to a slow start.
