Happy to have stumbled on this thread, if somewhat late. In 1968, I think there were 2 weekly clubs in the same venue (Monday and Thursday?). Recall many of the other acts mentioned in this thread. The Fife Reivers who lost Shaggis to Noel Murphy who lost him to Elton John (I think). In the mid-70's I had some enjoyable gigs there, marred only by the very audible blip blip of the wretched early gaming machine (ping pong etc). Al Matthew was a great character, an American with a great voice. At one time with Hawkwind and TV ad voiceover, he became a Radio 1 DJ for a while. RIP Don and Rod. Happy days.
