The original post had me scratching me 'ed, Bunbury St.? :huh:

It did remind me of the yard and wooden? steps on Wilford Cres.

Confirmed by Tony.

I was too young to go there, Was it a bit 'Wheel Tappers & Shunters' ?

Mick,

You are quite right. The club was up some old wooden steps. I only went there the once. I think it tried to compete with sante Fe but didn't last too long.

I'm sure it opened in 1964 and closed later that year.I woder how long Sante Fe lasted?

Kind regards,

Tony

As far as I can remember Sante Fe opened in 1962.Originally it was open on a Sunday night following Evensong.The vicar Mr Whalley wanted to attract more young people to the evening service. I recall as a young man of 13 years the church being quite packed out with older teenagers.This met with some disaproval with the older congregation so it was aborted.

I finished going around 1966.

Kind regards

Tony.

I remember the Carousal.  It tried to rival the Santa Fe.  Before that it was a "club" hosted by Amber Vandela - anyone remember her ?

Amber Vandela was her stage name she dabbled in a bit of lunch time pealing she also ran Vandela entertainment agency , and my informant tells me she still can be seen " dressed "at Nottingham racecourse she owns a few race horses .

It also opened under the rather grand title of "The Play Girl Pussy Club" as I recall. I lived on Mundella Road and of course I was far too young to venture to the establishment as it was a "striptease club"

Where exactly was this club Don?

same place as the carousel club on Wilford Crescent just up the road from the Paper shop on the opposite side of the road.

Incidently Terry Hefford also lived just a few doors from it and he was also a Scout Master as I recall.

Terry Hefford, I believe, was an ellectrician and DJ at the Santa Fe' around 1968.

I could do with getting a list of tracks he played there around that time.

Yes he was thats the guy. He used to play mainly reggae and ska music, Jimmy Ruffin, Jimmy Cliff , lots of Tamla Motown,that sort of thing. As kids grew up they migrated to the Town Arms (as was), more psychadelic lights lol, we used to wear white shirts because if you wore owt dark it showed every speack of dust up and you looked like you were in need of some "Head n Shoulders" lol!

The Carousel Club did trade for a while as the "Play Girl Pussycat Club" not the" Playgirl Pussy Club" as I quoted before, anyway it was not used as an offensive term in thosedays, God it makes me feel owd now! lol

Ah So! Not sure if I qualify as being "alive in a country where he is not" but it sounds like "spam" in any language to me lol.

I used to go to the santa fe and the carousel, I remember the silly dance we used to do at the santa fe, sort of stand in a circle, put one leg in and just, move your arms low by your side, silly or what? the first time I heard come on by the stones was there so must have been around 64 I reckon, The carousel was a bit more like a club, I remember we had to queue on the stairs before we were let in, inside it had them purple lights that showed ya dandruff up summat silly, and a few quiet corners for smooching and stuff.
