I first went to the "Wheel" in early '66. Travelled from Liverpool, we had nothing like it. I did a bit of DJaying. As with other DJ's I sent to the USA for records, without even hearing them first, if they where on the soul lists I bought it. Some of them where "shite" but if I got a good one I would Hammer it in my sets, until I had punters asking where they could get. The birth of Northern Soul ???

the wheel was great, but lets not forget the mojo in sheffield,the Bin Lid in

Dewsbury,String o Beads in Bradford and countless others around the country

I was a late comer to the Wheel and started going at the end of '69 continuing to the final night. I'd forgotten some of the acts I'd seen. This brought it all back. Many thanks for posting and Keep the Faith!!

My Dad use to go to the Twisted Wheel in the late 60's. Said he used to hitchhike all over to places from Southport.

[sarahkleen]

now i know what my uncle meant when he told me about the twisted wheel . thanks x

[waddicor1]

Great stuff man. Almost got the old bones moving! Can't do the back drop any more or I'd end up in A&E. Sorry to say I moved on from Lambrettas to rice burners. Leather isn't as revealing as mohair suits! Are we dying out?

[door2yourheart]

Nice spin, mate! Amazing how many legendary artists appeared at the Wheel! I used to do Ivors Abadis brothers garden years ago, lol! His wife used to be always cooking food for the club, which at the time was called Mr Smiths, same premises as the Wheel.
