The Lennox Lounge on 125th Street and Lennox Ave (7th) in Harlem NYC is a Great Bar, With Great Food and Great Music. The Zebra Room in the back of the Lounge is a dedicated Live Music Room. Billy Holiday, Prez, Byrd Earl Fatha Hines, Monk all the greats have hung here and swung until the wee wee hours. Smalls is gone There is a fake Cotton club on the West Side on a 125th but the Lennox Lounge continues to be the real thing on a nightly basis. There is a open mike night where the cover is five bucks and the hat is on the piano (A Grand) and when a headliner comes in it is all good. The Lennox Lounge is apart of the Harlem Renaissance that is not gentrfied or cliched. It is a part of the Harlem Community that has a direct provenance to the greats of Jazz.

When I lived in Harlem the Lennox Lounge was like my living room. I would stop by every night after work and have a cocktail listen to the Juke Box have a conversation, sliping into another time and place. The Music was alive and real, hiting it high and hiting it low. I was invited to the Granduncles birthday party and treated like a regular, Uptown at the Lennox Lounge.

If you like live music in a small room and you want to hear it the way it was meant to be heard Take the A train (or the 6) and get to a 125th street
