I was there! A number of jazzers, including Brian Chester I think, went. We watched the revolving stage turn half way , hover and go back. Eventually a replacement drummer was recruited - who was he? No idea.
Sad end to a legendary venue.....for a number of reasons.
George Hannah was my father. I was there that night at the Mayfair
