The 502 Club

One of the Midwest's finest jazz clubs. Let the memories live. Let the music live on. Marty Mellman's 502 Club was one of the hottest spots in Columbus.

During the 1950s and early 1960s, the club, located at ST. Clair and Leonard, hosted many famous entertainers including Miles Davis, Horace Silver, Dizzy Gillespie and Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. It is said that Julian "Cannonball" Adderly encouraged a young Nancy Wilson, while at the 502, to leave Columbus for New York. Let the memory live.

When I was just 5 years old I met Chip Willis at my father's bar THE LEMON DROP in the now Short North.

You'll be forever missed & loved by many.

A musician who played for years at Marty's Lemon Drop went home today to that ever enduring band in Heaven.

Chip Willis will truly be missed.
