John Lennon and Ringo Starr visit Scotch Of St James nightclub, London

10.00pm, Saturday 12 February 1966 (46 years ago)

John Lennon and Ringo Starr paid a visit to the Scotch Of St James nightclub on this evening.

The Scotch, as it was known, was located at 13 Masons Yard, off Duke Street in London. The Beatles had their own table at the club, which was fitted with a brass plate bearing their name.

Earlier in February 1966, Paul McCartney had met Stevie Wonder at the Scotch following a performance.
