GUEST,Bredda Remember Les Cousins, in London's Soho? (308* d) RE: Remember Les Cousin's, in London's Soho? 29 Oct 10


worked at Les Cousins from its inception for about 4 years on and off behind the bar, inbetween working at Ronny Scotts when I had rows with Andy or his parents. Les Cousins was started as a french disco by a couple of french student cousins. Andy was 17 and used to act as dj. His parents owned the restaurant above and supplied all the sandwiches for the allnighters. I went in one night with some friends (I was 16) and got involved. After a short spell as a rock venue we went over to folk music. I hears some phenomenal music over the years, worked my socks off and adored it. The first night in England Jimi Hendrix came in with Chas Chandler and Alexis Korner was playing & chas asked if Jimi could jam with the band &when Jimi played with his teeth better than most can play with their fingers we were all gobsmacked. Memories of hearing some wonderful artists -Bert, Jackson C Frank, Sandy Denny Martin Carthy Watersons Paul Simon.
