THE CLUB RUDE RICKY TICK SPECIAL ALL PLAYED ON VINTAGE VINYL, 17th FEBRUARY 1966, AT THE QUEENS ARMS, GREAT KNOLLYS ST., READING, PLAYLIST, WITH GUEST MARTIN FUGGLES.
CLUB RUDE THE THIRD THURSDAY EACH MONTH. PREVIOUS PLAYLISTS AND MORE DETAILS AT www.jimz.biz -click on on jimzplaylists. ALSO THE “CLUB RUDE” PAGE OR “PAUL ANDERSON” OR “JIM B. DONOVAN” ON FACEBOOK.
Well we didn’t even need the tardis for this one. At the press of a button it was 1966 ish, with the Ricky Tick coming back to life after well over 40 years away. Martin Fuggles our guest dj., who last played at the tik 44 years ago took the evening to a high after 10.00, playing the tunes that shook the club all those years ago. Most of all thanks to all of you who came to make up our biggest and most receptive audience yet. I better not name check them all in case I leave someone out, but they are all pictured on Facebook either at CLUB RUDE, or Paul Anderson, or Jim B Donovan or the various links from those pages. We must mention Ali MacKenzie however who was with us with the Birds brand new single, a magnifico double “A” sided seven. Thanks also of course to Smiler-who put the theme together-, Dan and Keith for setting the mood. The next session is on March 17th., with loads more previous playlists and details at my new revamped site.
