As The Mecca & Cleggy are often mention in the same breath,was there tunes first played at Cleggy that became biggies at The Mecca or was it all one way from Blackpool to Cleethorpes?

Cheers

Martyn

I think it was just a case of the DJs taste at that time, Colin and Ian were playing much the same New and Obscure New releases as we were at Cleethorpes And mixing it up with the the currant big 60s sounds, We all seemed to be on the same wave length music wise and i suspect that is why Cleethorpes And The Mecca musically was held in such high regard,(we played off each other) A lot of other venues frowned upon this and stayed staunchly 60s (but most relented in the end) due  to pressure from people asking for certain record being played elsewhere. Great soul Music is Great Soul Music which ever way you look at it.

Cheers

Rick

Not strictly record club but following the thread, some superb footage here of Cleethorpes back in the day

 

Chris,That is such a rare film clip which i do remember, the guy filming was up on the stage with a 35mm camera with a bright light on front (of course no sound in those days hense the dubbed on sound) for years we wondered what happened to this footage until it finally did appear on line eventually.

It was filmed during a dance competition at what i believe was one of the anniversaries.

For those wanting to spot who was who on the stage area I was the long haired Chappy at 48/50 secs.

Mary Chapman Fore front with Husband Colin just behind her At 51/52 secs.

Dick Jervis at the Decks with Rick Todd just behind him at 53/54 secs

 Brilliant clip Patto thanks for posting.  Do you know what the track is please that comes on for about twenty seconds straight after Christine Cooper around 3.45, I am sure I know it but cannot remember who sings it. :hatsoff2:

Bruv the first track after Christine Cooper is Donald Lee Richardson--You Got Me In The Palm Of My Hand.

If you mean the very brief snip before that well its too muffled for me to make out it could be an instrumental.

Like a few of the uptempo cleggy 70s classics but Summer In the Parks was always a step too far for me.A Jumbled mess of a tune i always make for the bogs when it comes on :wink:.

Chris, it sticks in the mind like it was yesterday ( i wish lol ) :thumbup: and i would have been the tender age of around 25 years old on that clip,

Where did all those years go?  :ohmy:

Bit of a change from me today, an LP Track from 1988, With a lot of interest in the Pioneers 7" My good friend James over the years, This is a Blue eyed Soul Version that myself and Tom Paddison (JC) played as a new release in Sunny Scunny, from the same album "love don't come no stronger than your love" came from Called "For a lifetime" A refreshing change and i hope you enjoy

Yes it is muffled Patto, it's a shame it's only on for a few seconds.

Hi Rick, if it's not too much trouble which Cleethorpes/Pier/Winter Gardens records do you think are long forgotten and worth reactivating today? intrigued by those venues and the innovative spirit

Top tune Rick - always imagined it was Stafford era rather than earlier - bet it sounded great at Clegg

It did, have to say the sound system was brill, the banks of speakers either side of the stage were taller than me.

Big base bins  with huge speakers on top of them and rows of the larges Horns i'd ever seen at that time.

I think Mary hired them from Road Runner Discos who were Grimsby/Cleethorpes based and hired out equipment, mind you,you needed some wattage to fill the Pier, Was a massive, place, The Blackpool Mecca sound system was very good too, Speakers were built into the ceiling over the dance area if i remember rightly.

Well some nice tunes from Rick and Chris but time now to step out of the PINK OYSTER DISCO STUDIO :wink:.In response tonight 3 prev unssued 60s stormers

Heres a Doni Burdick tune that became a monster spin in the 90s .After being previously unssued it got its first legit issue on the Pink Soul King  label.

Both decent records Rick but Charlie is king. Still regularly blast that one out at home. To this day there are a few lyrics that I've never nailed down!
