This is the Arcadia Ballroom in the late 1950's which later became the Bucaneers. I Don't know if it was called the High Spot inbetween but it was definately downstairs in the cellar of the Liberal Club.

The article is quite large so I have only scanned part of it

Oh, weren't we a wicked lot, getting 'hep' and 'jive bugging' with the other 'cats'?
I'd love to read the whole article, anzac, can you post it? so typical of how older people regarded the new dance craze, reminds me of my wicked, misspent youth when I should have been studying.
You forget how parents and 'old folk' regarded rock and roll then- the Devils work!
