All you old northern boys-love you to bits- but this was massive down in the south as well. What a five star string filled romantic dancer. Big in London's Lyceum in the Strand and especially at The Watersplash at London Colney played by non other than Jonny Soul!
Blackpool77 your comments on the pier are spot on and they almost bring a lump to my throat. i have fantastic memories of that venue. thank's for bringing them flooding back! cheers mate..ktf
cheers Tonio -think Morecambe was rather overlooked compared to some of the other all-nighters that some people go on about . Considering its huge attendances and its music policy it stands out as ,for me , one of the great North West Soul Venues
Yes it was a great night . Remember on the 2nd Anniversary when Kev Edwards was there (not djing) .Both Richard and Kev had asked Colin Curtis to come to ,but Colin couldnt . Great night; great sounds;great crowd - huge attendance in 85/86 -it even beat Legends in Manchester into 2nd place in the Black Echoes poll. I like so many had walked away from the Northern Scene some years earlier and went forward with the Manchester Jazz Funk Scene -but Morecambe reunited alot of the old factions .

The Central at Morecambe was indeed out of this world. We -- the Bradford contingent-- had somne of our best ever nights there.

Always remember them playing the old Colin Curtis spin : Harvey Mason "How Does it Feel" -that really took the roof off the place !!

Morecambe pier was on my door step and they had some of the best soul nights ever.
it had everything, a fantastic venue/crowd & great mix of 60' 70's & 80's soul. Many thanks for your comments..
