1957 (Aug 7) – Beatles At The Cavern Club

August 7, 1957

Quarrymen, 1957. This picture wasn’t during the August 7th performance.

The Quarry Men played at The Cavern Club in Liverpool, (without Paul McCartney who was away at Boy Scout summer camp). The Cavern was still a jazz club, but skiffle was tolerated, but when John Lennon dared to play ‘Hound Dog’ and ‘Blue Suede Shoes’, the club owner sent a note to the stage saying, “Cut out the bloody rock!”
