Pantiles (club) Closed Forever 14 July 2007

[Chris L]

Anybody else on Soul Source ever frequent Pantiles, on the A30 in Bagshot, Surrey ?

Not exactly a 100% soul club, but in the 70T's the music they played was about 75%

soul, old and current. I had a mate Phil barrs who DJ'd there guess about 1974 - 76

he was an old Mecca/Torch hand and snook the odd NS choon in when he could.

Many a great night had there over the years, have to say more for chasing women

than spinning to Rose Batiste.......

Don't know how old you are but there used to be an all-niter in Farnborough, close to

the station, underneath the then Yellow Pages offices, think it was called something

like "Blue Lagoon" or something like that, it was a very, very, very long time ago.

There were actually quite a few clubs in the area in the early 70T's. In Woking the Atalanta,

Agincourt in Camberley (sung on stage with Edwin Starr - Tueday night, way before War

made him a super-star - very much riding on those Ric-Tic re-issues), Something underneath

the car park in Bracknell, opposite Bentalls, don't know the name, Pantiles of course, best

soul club around was the A Train in Guildford every sunday evening, 100% soul, think one of

the DJ's is involved on Bisley. There was a real Northern Soul all-niter in Portsmouth, put

together by sailors from "Up Norf" called the Marina. On a par with the Wheel as far as music

was concerned, loads of imports, M Lance, etc. It started to go pear shaped with the advent

of funk/protest "soul" music 1971/72 that's when we headed up to the Cats, Mecca & Torch.

Ever come accross a character called Pat Munroe? he used to live practically at Pantiles.

Me and my m8 sophie used to go to the wooden Bridge in Guildford ´bout 1976/77 was mates with Jez bishop (We knew him as Punter then) Think he is the DJ associated with bisley you were talking about. Got dressed up and went to pantiles a few time underage but it didn´t seem to matter so much then.

Think her mum and mine got together found out we were not doing homework after all and i was grounded for a month!

We also went to snoopys in richmond. Anyone remember that?

I occasionally went to Pantiles in the early 70's but did not like the music. Originally from Camberley, my friends and I (or on my own) went to the commercial and non commercial soul music clubs around the area during the early/mid 1970's: Bisley Pavilion; Aldershot -Buxted Chicken Factory; Camberley-Agincourt, Shades of Green, Banners/Cambridge Hotel, Hawley Hotel; Farnborough-Town Hall, Queens Hotel, Blue Moon, Big C. Tumbledown Dick; Fleet-Town Hall, Silver Park Club, Fleet Country Club. I also used to go to Reading Top Rank (Night Owl), Farnham-Harveys; Woking-Atlanta; Richmond-Cheeky Pete's; Egham-Francos; Guildford-Annabellas/Cinderellas, Windsor Safari Park Club, plus the club under Bracknell carpark - Dawbourne's (I think).

During the early 70's the Agincourt used to hold a Northern Soul night every Thursday. At most of the non commercial soul clubs you could order and buy all your Soul & American Import records off the DJ's. You could get the coach organised by Derek to Wigan Casino from outside the Tumbledown Dick.

Woking-Atlanta

Actually called the Atalanta, built as a ballroom in the late 1800's. We used to go there

from Walton, Hersham, West Byfleet, etc. all meet up on the train. Get to Woking station,

down the new bit, past the Albion pub. We'd always be there before the place opened,

queing up was always a part of the experience. The DJ Bob Potter used to play a reel to

reel tape whilst setting up the decks. It was the same tape for all the times I went there,

which I guess must have been for about 2 years. Tracks were Behind a painted smile -

Isley Bros, Right Traclk - Billy Butler, People - the Tymes, Help Me - Spellbinders, Sly &

Family Stone - Everyday people, can't remember the rest. The wooden dance floor used

to bend when it got full and a popular record came on. Boy!! spooky I can remember all

this stuff, I have no idea what I had for tea last night..........

[Guest Salv]

I never went to Pantiles, but went regularly to the Hawley Hotel - I saw my first punks there - until Frenchies opened and took all Hawley punters. I never thought Frenchies was as good as the Hawley though and only went there a few times. I went to the Dawbourne Club a couple of times, including my first All-Dayer; Cheeky Petes a few times; a couple of places in Guildford; a place in Camberley which I'm sure was above the shopping centre, but I can't remember the name; and every Reading Top Rank All-Dayer except August Bank Holiday 1977 when Chris Hill led the conga line downstairs to take over the main room.

I went to the Atalanta once to see a band called Smiling Hard, who were a not very good Brit funk band, and can remember the DJ playing George Benson's Super Ship.

Did anyone go to the Sunday lunch time sessions at the Belvedere on the road between Ascot and Virginia Water in the mid-80s? They could be quite good, but getting out of the carpark at the end was a nightmare.

I spent many, many nights in the Atalanta at Woking, started going there after the Co-op at Addlestone went downhill. Also went to Pantiles and was a regular at the Marina in Pompey. After the Marina we used to spend all day in Pompey and then go to a club near Guildford railway station on Sunday evenings - forget the name now.

Also went to Cheeky Petes at Richmond (it used to be The Castle), Reading and Croydon Top Ranks and the Orchid at Purley as well as Stretham Meccano and Hammersmith Palais. Also used to go to a little reggae club in Reading - a little basement club, often we were the only white guys in there!

Long way back now!!

Alan,

The club in Reading was down some steps with just a Coca-Cola sign over the door if I remember rightly, it actually featured for a few seconds in a History of Jamaican Music on TV once (BBC I think).

Chris,

I'm sure our paths must have crossed at some time - I replied to your PM.

Forgot about Snoopys & Cheeky Petes in Richmond ....Use to attend such places when we weren't making the trek up norf or down to yate.

Never made the Wooden Bridge but did do the Plaza at Guildford circa '69 boy did they ever play some great soul music as a young a

16 year old lad growing up (still disputed:lol: ) it really sorted me out as a music lover Even older the Woking Atalanta reckon

about 1968-ish

I grew up in Addlestone and used to hear the older lads talk about the great soul scene in the 60's around that part of the country

I just missed out on the "Atta" in Woking but I remember the building well didnt it have a pointy roof turret thingy?

we use to go to Woking to buy our harringtons and stuff off the market ..I ended up working on a record stall there late 70s

Then you must have known Pete & Keith Hussey ? They all used to go down to the Portsmouth Marina too, an all-nighter. I lived in Walton-on-Thames for a bit and yes the Atta did have a pointy roof, well done !! The floor of the Atta used to bend if too many people came on to it and started moonstomping There was one bloke (I'll think you'll find his name on this thread somewhere) from Addletsone who, for a southerner had quite a tasty collection in 1970 Can't remember his name, Steve something meethinks.

OMG I went to school with Dennis their little bro we started infants together and went all the way through.....

Pete and Keith tied me up when I was about 10 and hosed me down in their back yard with the horses a right pair of nutters back in the day

Last time I saw Keith was on the train to Croydon he had an upholstery business over there that was about 1980.

Oh Yeah ...& I did go to Pantiles....not that often. (The pub across the road use to be called the Hero of Inkerman but they shortened it to Hero's.)

I was a bit young and found it expensive but I remember the girls were a lot classier than most places I frequented in those days
