My first ever jazz show was at the basement club in February 1975 (which was destroyed by a fire about a year later). The headliner was Milt Jackson. The MJQ has played their "last concert" three months before and he came in to play with Joe's "house band" of Jodie Christian, Victor Sproles, and Wilbur Campbell. Only Vic was unavailable and his replacement was a young Steve Rodby who was barely old enough to drink alcohol.
The best surprise, however, was an opening act that wasn't on the bill - Sonny Criss.
Saw so many great shows at the first two clubs. Only went to the Blackstone once - but I got to meet Allan Eager before the show. I knew the DJ who was interviewing him and sat in during the interview.
