Che Joey

I thought Che Joey was between Cannon st and Market st, up some stairs with a three piece band playing jaz and smooth music, before disco hit the scene. I was well under age geting in there and only ever got in because my elder sister knew the bouncer.

My late, great step father Edward Warburton [Trombonist] played here for many years.My goodness the stories that he shared with many,many fellow muscians was stunning what a great shame that jazz music was not enjoyable then as it is now to a girl born in the eighties. My father was a legend.

Long, live, Live jazz music.

Yes, true it was chez Joey but it was pronounced in French as “shay”.  So you could forgive punters missing out the ‘zed’.  The house-band and the uv lighting made the brilliant buzz about the place.  Warning: the uv’s really emphasized dandruff!

Sorry to be a bit pedantic, but it was called the Chez Joey.  Meaning 'Joey's Place' in French.    One of the best modern jazz clubs in Mcr.
