Since its inception in 1981, Blue Note has become one of the premier jazz clubs in the world and a cultural institution in Greenwich Village. Owner and founder Danny Bensusan had a vision to create a jazz club in Greenwich Village that would treat deserving artists with respect, while allowing patrons to see the world's finest jazz musicians in a close, comfortable setting. Artists who had stopped playing in jazz clubs decades before, such as Sarah Vaughn, Lionel Hampton, Dizzy Gillespie, Stanley Turrentine, Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, and Tito Puente, soon called Blue Note home.
Tessa Souter always had in mind a professional career as a singer, though she ended up getting a much later start. She was interested in music as far back as she can remember.

The policy here is supposed to be first come, first served on seating. No matter how early you reserve, or how early you arrive - forget it. They lie. All the worthwhile seating is reserved for "friends of the manager." Since its a small crowded, conjested place, that means all the decent seats are already being held. You or I can't get them. By the way the acoustics are bad, food is mediocre, its wall to wall chaos, and very noisy. If you want to see a good performance, buy a resrved seat somewhere else. And packed with tourists. Only thig missing are the Planet Hollywood teeshirts for sale. And the tables they cram you at with 3-4 other strange couples are uncomfortable, way over crowded and give you each about 12" of elbow room in total. Very uncomfortable. But what upsets us most - is they advertise one seating policy then ignore it and play favorites. If thats what you like in New York - here it is - the only one missing element is the bouncer at the front door restricting who goes in.
