Keep getting the name neil allen in mind?

Can`t remember who ran it mate, just remember it was a fantastic venue, used to meet a mate there who i`m trying to trace, just started a topic on all about soul section about him, GOOD DAYS THEM MATE

Don`t know wether this is in the right section but here goes. There was a lad who i used to buy a lot of records off in the record bar at wigan, and can`t for the life of me remember his name, sure he was the lad who allways sat with tim ashibende think they may have been partners, i know they went to america together in the late 70`s early 80`s anyone have any ideas, would ike to knw what happened to him is he still around? THANKS HARRY

Used to go to a fantastic nighter in warrington, been trying to think of the name of it this was in the eighties {early}, The name PARR HALL, springs to mind, am i right? Had some great nights there, don`t think it ran for very long, or did it any info please

Think it also came out on canadian STONE as well as the american/french release did it?
