The Gyllene Cirkeln [Golden Circle] jazz club was the hub of Stockholm’s jazz scene from 1962 until it closed in 1969. The club was at the center of Sweden’s underground music scene, frequently hosting American and international musicians. In 1970 the Rolling Stones famously performed there after hours, and Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor, Jack McDuff, and Pink Floyd all released live recordings from the club.
