Wally's Paradise

Since 1947, Wally's, originally called Wally's Paradise and still located on Massachusetts Avenue in the South End, has been a landmark jazz club. This neighborhood jazz bar, owned by Joseph Walcott, who is now 95 years old, has played host to nationally know musicians like Errol Garner, Oscar Peterson, Charlie Parker, and Coleman Hawkins. Local performers, such as drummer Alan Dawson and Saxophonists Greg Osby and Andy McGhee, all got their start at Wally's where up-and-coming musicians can also ply their musical trade. The Club's Sunday afternoon jazz session is still one of its oldest and richest traditions.
