MATHEW STREET
AND THE CAVERN The cavern was the basement cellar of an old fruit warehouse, which during the Second World War had been used as an air raid shelter, then later as an egg packing station. The warehouse was one of many on a small, cobbled back street called Mathew Street, in the middle of Liverpool's commercial district. In 1957, a young businessman called Alan Sytner had been working in Paris where he visited a club called Le Caveau de la Huchette. Impressed by its moody, bohemian atmosphere, he decided he would like to open a similar club in England. Alan returned to Liverpool where he discovered No.10 Mathew Street. He opened it as a club on the 16th June, 1957. A keen jazz fan, Alan employed the most popular local jazz bands to perform and soon the Cavern became one of the liveliest nightspots in town, frequented mostly by students and avant-garde characters. In 1959, the club was bought by Ray McFall. One evening in January 1960, a jazz festival was organised with star bands such as Acker Bilk's topping the bill. Some local bands were also booked, among them Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. They were warned that it was a jazz night only, but after a couple of sedate, pleasant numbers Rory broke into a real rocker, ‘A Whole Lot of Shakin’ Foin’ On’. The regular clientele complained and said they wanted their beloved jazz back. However, as the weeks went by Ray McFall found that the beat groups were bringing in more custom than the jazz. Ray also noticed that young office workers were spending their lunch hours hanging around music stores such as Hessy’s. This gave him the idea to put on lunchtime sessions at the Cavern Because of the number of groups appearing in the city, the Cavern had no difficulty in attracting bands and all the top names of the Merseybeat era performed at the club. On 21st March 1961, the Beatles appeared for the first time at the Cavern. |
