Blueten

Thank god for that.I thought it was just me!!!!

Hi Kev.I used to go to Wilby now and again-great atmospere,and Gibby and Mick although hardly ever mentioned (unless ive missed something) were a couple of the best DJs ive heard. Would have gone there more often but spent more time up north. I was wondering if you remember a bloke called Paul Shears or as we used to call him-Shag.I think he was a regular there.It was with him that I went to the Wheel with for the first time-he now lives in Australia.

Hi tony.The thread you read was not written by me and I dont know where Wembley came from,but I can assure you I was at the Stax Review.

Hi Tony.This is Blueten speaking for himself,and yes,I was at Finsbury Park Astoria. Regards Mark.

Hi stereo jet. I was at the stax review in 1967 at The Finsbury Park Astoria.My most vivid memories were of Otis singing I cant Turn You Loose and Shake of which I have a live recording on Stax.I will always remember the long trudge back to the motorway to hitch a lift back home as at the time,I was still at school and could not afford things like buses!! I also saw The Four Tops at the Royal Albert Hall.This was their first visit to britain and Reach Out was climbing the charts-fantastic. Was also at the live recording of Geno Washingtons "Hand clappin Foot Stompin Funky Butt Live" at Leicester-not a favourite of mine but the atmosphere was absolutely electric,and the first time I had ever stood up to dance in a cinema!!! Those were the days. Regards Mark.

Hi Kev.Certainly is Bletsoe-I remember the wooden posts going to the floor.Unfotunately cant remember any of the faces though.
