Yes, jazz was played in speakeasies!. That is part of the reason that jazz had a bad reputation amongst the "moral" people of the time!.
I heard a story about the jazz musicians!. They were so used to the speakeasies getting raided by the cops, that when the raids would happen, the musicians would run to the police patty wagon to get a seat!. Otherwise, they would have to stand up the whole ride to the police station!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
