King, Alice Cooper, Johnny Winter, Ry Cooder, Captain Beefheart, Mother Earth, as well as local acts such as Balderdash, Bitter Blood Street Theater and Stone Fox. The Allman Brothers Band's 1970 live album Live at Ludlow Garage: 1970 and N R B Q Live at Ludlow Garage was recorded at the club.

Cincinnati city council member Jim Tarbell was proprietor of the garage from October 1969 until its closing in February 1971. Although no longer a concert venue, the garage still stands and currently houses a restaurant, yoga studio and an Ace Hardware store in the original concert space.

The upper floor remains a restaurant and re-opened in November 2015.
