Forge All-nighter York Feb 81

[Derek Pearson]

These all-nighters were held at a club just outside York on the A64 to Leeds. We used to get the last train across from Bradford then share a taxi out to the place. Can't recall the DJs or how long the place ran for, though I seem to think I played some records there once, Youngblood Smith springs to mind.

I go back along way with the York crowd and there's Ronnie Pedley with can in hand. And I'm wearing that damn duffle coat inside the club.

from left to right: Andy aka Yammy from Rotheram; Jackie also from Rotheram in centre. Vaguely remember the 2 black guys but can't recall their names.

At the time Tony Coleby was rated as a big Detroit collector and here's some of his wares. Left to right: Pete Lawson with Lester Tipton, Harry Crosby with Al Williams WDJ, Tony with Frankie Karl WDJ.
