Another Saturday Night. The Broken Wheel. A Soul Night in Retford 1967-1971 - John Kirk. Available at A Nickel And A Nail £9.99, order via link below. One man's recollections of the Broken Wheel, a soul club in Retford between 1967 and 1971.The Broken Wheel was popular with teenagers for a mix of live and recorded music from artists on labels such as Tamla Motown, Stax, Atlantic, Ric Tic, Okeh, Gordy, Invictus, RCA, MGM and others. This made a huge impression on teenagers across the country and, for a few unforgettable years, the youth of Retford shared this experience in an old grain warehouse by the Chesterfield Canal, where music and dancing created eternal memories (new, gloss paperback).

Thanks for that, yes, Reflections continued well after the 70s, and like its counterpart Arthur Smith Studios, is sadly no more. My excuse for the '70s focus of my account I guess is as it is an excerpt from the Tempests book, Roger Branch's activities as an engineer / producer moved more towards New Orleans beyond this. In fact in the '90s he ended up at Sea-Saint Studio working with / for Allen Toussaint, and eventually opened his own studio after Hurricane Katrina destroyed Sea-Saint. But that's different story picked up in a later chapter.
