Edwin AND Pete Myles - top trumps both of them. Loved the Unicorn - Jon gave us something special there.

Remember Tam's car coming back from Manchester Edwin? Dave Carne.

not so hairy now, in fact pretty much bald, but still with a grey beard - surprised that people remember me as it must be getting on for 30 years ago, and apart from a couple of local 60's nites I've jocked  about 15 years ago I've not been anywhere.

[Guest Spain pete]

Who was the guy that dj'd in the duffle coat with the hood up on a cold night ?  

 

[Davenpete]

Carl Fortnum.

I went to the Leighton Buzzard, Unicorn Niters in the very early 80's , Living in Cranfield, it was 2 bus journeys to get there,

Must have been just after the Bedford Nite Spot alnighters finished, which would be in 1980.

I can remember Don Thomas, Come on Train was very popular, as well as a lot of early stuff such as Ron Holden, Forgive and Forget, and the

well known Mirwood records, like Millionaires, Never for me.

Decent venue with lots of interesting people.

Bloody hell...Dave  Carne, how are you.havent seen you for many moons. Was it in Tam’s car when one of our fellow passengers decided that he’d had enough and was gonna jump out of the car when we bombing down the  motorway...mad trip that was

Yep..the Unicorn was a great  niter ...nothing pretentious...just good music and great people

anyways Dave...hope you’re keeping might fine

I find I remember the stuff I want to and bin the rest lol. Don’t think the age of the stuff comes into it

i was mates with Simon Small, Gavin and Pablo and lived in Watford- still do. 

Lots of happy memories of The Unicorn, including the chips.

Pete Myles, now there's a name from the past! - had some great tapes from Pete down at 100 Club - still got a few! 

Unicorn club plus the other nights (seem to recall a Thursday night in Luton run by Jon - "the weekend starts here") Jon and Sue did were great.

We use to come over in a car load with Jenny and Nina and little Mark - a bit sweaty and wiffy on the way home though!
