There are loads of threads on here that have flyers / ads for 70's NS venues but not too many that deal with the London based clubs in the 60's ...

 

The thread that refuses to die:)

An extra bit of info, connected to my last post ... 

The Foundations manager ran his own record label (TREND) -- after first running his own chain of record shops.

The Foundations live act was always filled with cover versions of obscure soul tracks. They said it was coz they had a large record collection -- really it was their manager (who's chain of shops imported US 45's to sell) who had the large stock of soul records.

Im looking for my second cousin, Sandra, who used to work at The Scene Club in the 1960s. She was a DJ there on Wednesday nights, hosting off the Record with Sandra if anyone remembers her or has any information about where she might be now, please get in touch Id love to reconnect and hear more about her time at the club!

Im on a mission to track down my second cousin, Sandra, who worked at the Scene Club back in the 1960s. She was a key part of the Wednesday night event called Off the Record with Sandra. Ive heard so many stories about those nights and Id love to connect with her again, to hear more about that legendary time. If anyone has information on how to reach her, Id really appreciate it!

According to the book King Mod by Steve Turner, Sandra Lane—later known as Sandra Blackstone—disappeared without a trace in 1966, soon after the closure of The Scene Club, presumably moving to America to start a new life. I know it's not much help, but it's a start. You can also see two pictures of Sandra in the book.

Brian Peters used to DJ there at the same time but I'm pretty sure he had lost touch; I'll ask 

A few of the dances Mods will knock their socks off in London as shown by the late great Patrick Kerr on Mirabelle magazine in 1964.

Thank you  

A London area club that burnt brightly for a short time. I believe it was pub based & the building was swept away by a road widening scene (I'm told where the venue stood is now a large roundabout) ...
