the number of Gerorgio moroder responses prompted me to share what i had sent Maarten off board.
There was a huge gang of us who went 'clubbing' if you could call it that during 1974/76 and we had a fixed routine - the only chemical was amyl nitrate bought illegally from a chemist in picadilly circus: Monday - Busbys : Charing Cross Road - was a gay club open till about 3.00 in wots now the mean fiddler Tuesdays - Crystal Palace Hotel, right on the round-about at Crystal Palace (Does anyone remember the this? Thursdays - Ripples (It was somewhere around the avenue where the Sounshaft now is). I always remember Jonathan Richman & Modern Lovers Egyptian Reggae from this club - whenever i hear the tune thats my memory. Fridays - Was Louises Poland Street - Normally a lesbian club but taken over by SexPistols & Friends and surprisingly a huge legion of people from Radio Luxembourg Saturdays - Global Village: (I remember Boy George about 15!) Huh! Sundays - Crystal Palace Hotel Again. sorry ... all very un-313 but reminisces ...... yeah, i'm that old and still out two to three times a week (couldnt do 6 nights anymore). luv-it! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael D Tyrer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Maarten Baute" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 04:59 Subject: Re: [313] georgio moroder > Hi Maarten > i can only tell you huge > sorry not to be able to point you at any text > > i have the original donna summer 'i feel love' from 1976 sitting here > and can tell you that around the time this first came out the whole impact > of clubbing changed massively > here in the UK.
