  So a fellow Yelper brought me up to date and I just learned that the 1048 Jazz and Blues bar moved to 1104 Fairview Ave in the mid to late 90's and they just kept their name. Pretty cool huh! That explains the funky address.

  This is the way a bar was meant to be... good live music (I struck up a conversation with a musician who I later learned played with the Temptations years ago), inexpensive booze, and interesting people.  I hope to make it back soon, and next time I'll try to be in Montgomery on a Sunday night so I can listen to some great blues music too.

  Came here on a Sunday evening , there is jazz every Sunday and the music was fantastic!!!! People who hang out here seemed really cool and friendly crowd..  This is a kind of gritty bar, but the drinks are strong and bartender was friendly...   At least for the jazz night, many people showed up very well dressed, although there were also people in t-shirts and jeans so I did not feel out of place, given that was how I was dressed.. In the Cloverdale area which apparently has other nightlife options and many restaurants, although on a Sunday not so much seemed to be going on anywhere in Montgomery, so this place is a great choice for a Sunday evening..  My one complaint was that the band took a ridiculously long break... I showed up around 11:30 and paid the $5 cover to learn that they had just gone on break..  They did not start playing music again for 45 minutes!!  But that was just this particular band on this particular night.. and anyways the music was wonderful and I got to talk to some very interesting people over some nice cocktails while waiting for the musicians to go back to work..

  This is a great little 'Hole in the wall' spot for live music and drinks. One of my favorites is the Autism Crawfish Boil they help sponsor every year. Its a great time, raises money for a great cause, and its great to see a local spot participate in this kind of thing.

  Great Live music!  If you get a chance to see and hear Ziggy and the Zigtones - GO!   Great southern rock.  The guitarist use to play with Molly Hatchet and is totally 'on fire' when he plays, and both the drummer and bassist are excellent.  This band rocks the place!

  Bartender  Bo was pretty cool. Music was good Grateful Dead and Phish covers, but much too loud. The band would have sounded better if they were just quieter. Had fun and will go back again in another 15 years.
