  15. Strangley, I heard this qoute on, of all things, a TV programme and thought it appropriate for this thread Celebrity. The pursuit of the talentless, by the mindless. It's become a disease of the twenty-first century. It pollutes our society, and it diminishes all who seek it, and all who worship it. And you must bear some of the responsibility for foisting this empty nonsense onto a gullible public.
  16. Cold Sweat - James Brown
  17. Do you recall a place in east London somewhere called Room at the top, maybe Romford/Ilford way around that time?
  18. The place in Ken High street was calle Sombreros I think, and there was a place called the Birds Nest in Kings Road that was quite good in the 70's

Global Village turned to Heaven and bedore > by time. You ever do the Royalty or The Goldmine? I went to the Royalty once and also to the Royal in Tottenham ( I think), the goldmine I went to a few times but in the early 70's the Lyceum on a Monday night was were I went along with a group of friends also used to frequent the Sloop John D, a club on a boat on the Thames moored between Chelsea and Albert bridge, it could only be reached by a little ferry that ran back and forth at the weekend. It had an American DJ, who played all the latest imports. Can't for the life of me remember the blokes name but his choice of music was second to none. Other clubs I recall are Hatchetts, and the Sundown in Tottenham Court Road. Early 80's was Beat Route, and the Embassy stopped clubbing shortly after the demise of that place.

Make the most of it, it won't last.
