On Whalley Road on the second floor of that red brick building where Catlows was. Started in summer, 1967 and I was one of the first members. You went through a little doorway and up a flight of stairs. They had that strange luminous lighting that made the pass out stamp on your hand glow - cracking music though!
Got me there Wyn, don't think I ever went there, if I did I must have been 3 sheets to the wind

Yep, remember Joe, lived down Charter Street and worked at Milletts on Church Street. Think he lives in London now.

Who can ever forget Accy Disco. It took over in popularity from from The Con. for the younger end. It was the centre of activity for the Accy Mods. It was here that we heard all the latest soul and Motown imports. Getting your hand stamped at 9 o'clock and going either to The Hope and Anchor or The Broadway for a pint (underage)
Trapping off with a bird and going up "The ragshop back" but thats another story. No wonder I have dodgy knees.
