MSG
The Manchester Sports Guild (MSG) was a membership-oriented organization founded in 1955 in Manchester, England, to promote amateur sports. L.C. Jenkins ("Jenks") was the founding General Secretary. Shortly after moving into its first venue on Market Street, MSG, almost by accident, began promoting jazz. In 1961, MSG acquired a venue on Long Millgate, opposite Chetham's School of Music, near the Manchester Cathedral. The venue flourished until about 1973, when it was closed imminent demolition, which didn't occur for a few years. The setting was an old brick Victorian building with a bar on the ground floor, folk music upstairs, jazz in its unadorned cellar. In 1962, shortly after opening the new venue, Jenks appointed Jack Swinnerton (né 1939–2008) as Jazz Organiser. Henceforth, the MSG began booking internationally acclaimed jazz artists ("Family Notes: Jack Barker Swinnerton" (obituary), The Swinnerton Saga, Journal of the Swinnerton Society, Vol. 13, No. 6, December 2008, p. 163) – performers who leaned more towards old-school blues and Dixieland in a Panassié-esque way. The Urbis building sits on the site.
