Inter City Soul Club (run by ”Kojak”)
Malvern Winter Gardens. 1974
I always loved soul music since I started going to youth club discos, e.g. :
a man like me , Jimmy James
here I go again Archie Bell & the Drells
In 1974 I saw a poster for an Alldayer in Malvern , twenty-one miles away. I persuaded four friends to come with me
When we got there we went into hall playing amazing sounds we had never heard before and a sea of people in Oxford Bags and vests “floating” in. Magical way on the dance floor. Youths from Worcester told us about Wigan Casino, which we went to the following week. Where I heard “Too Late” again. I have been hooked ever since.
