The early part of this thread dates from the days before I came to mudcat or I would have chipped in then.

Apart from residencies at the Cellar CSH and The Enterprise in Chalk Farm (although I was regular there in Tery Gould's days the residents during my "official" time were Don Bonito, myself and Marian McKenzie).

Most other North London Clubs I attended regularly at that time but I don't recall anyone mentioning the Hop Poles in Baker Street Enfield, Monday nights IIRC, Did an occasional residency/MC spot there.

The Tower in Walthamstow was mentioned, by Kitty I think, but the area also had late the Navy Boot club at the Lord Brooke and the Three Blackbirds at Leyton.

In between the Fox and the Empress of Russia mentioned by Ralphie was the Florence, which was mentioned, but even earlier that that, but continuing from the Fox, was the King's Head in Upper Street.

The Fox Islington Green carried on as a different club later, run I think by Tina Mullinger.

Someone mentioned running a club at the Greyhound Fulham. I remember going there and I think Dave Calderhead was involved.

And finally, for now anyway, I was regularly at the Wazgoose, in various venues around Stockwell.

Memories!
