Suburban Steps To Rockland

On the 17th of March 1962 the Ealing Jazz Club, commonly known as the Ealing Club, was advertised in the UK Music press as Britain's First Rhythm and Blues venue. The list of influential musicians that would become associated with the club is breathtaking; from the Rolling Stones, who met and played their second-ever show at the Ealing Club, to The Who and Eric Clapton. The Ealing Club became the launchpad for the careers of a golden generaton of British rock musicians.

Almost four years in the making, more than 50 interviews, super cool animated sequences and lots of fascinating archive videoclips and photos… the definitive documentary about ‘The Cradle of British Rock’ is finally completed! More news soon… check out FB, a page will be set up very soon.

Marshall Amps
August 25, 2015

Really excited to have these people supporting the film with a proper sponsorship. The story of the first Marshall shop, which opened up in Ealing in 1960 is very tied up with the story of The Ealing Club.

Jack Bruce, rest in peace
October 26, 2014

We are sad to hear about the passing of Jack Bruce. We didn’t get to know him personally, we just met him once. He was a very nice and friendly man. Out thoughts go to his family and loved ones. Suburban Steps to Rockland crew
