Coast
to Coast:
London.
A world city recognised for its revolutionary fashion, groundbreaking
art and most of all, as a melting pot of international music
and club culture. By the 1950s and 60s London clubs had taken
on new life and acquired international mystique. The Flamingo,
The Scene Club, Ronnie Scott's, the Scotch of St.James and Count
Suckle's Blues Party were the only places to be seen for the
nouveau-riche of the swinging sixties. As well as the soul,
ska, blues, rock and roll of the various, and now legendary,
clubs there was gambling and all manner of entertainment to
be had at the drop of a hat. In the mid-1960s there was nowhere
to compare to London after dark.
With
tougher gambling laws, crackdowns on unregistered venues and
strict licensing laws the hey-day of London nightlife may have
passed in our opinion but the spirit of the city lives on. The
spirit of the great clubs and cellar dives can still be found
at certain venues around the metropolis even now.
Part West-Indian blues party, part 60s Soul night. DJ Cello's
Coast to Coast is the new scene in London. Whether you are visiting
London for the weekend or living and working in the Smoke, Coast
to Coast is the main event in Town at this time. An eclectic
fusion of Northern Soul, Reggae, Ska, Funk & Boogaloo combine
in one of the unique club nights in Europe. Packed out with
all types, you get your drinks at pub prices and enjoy classic,
and rare black music from the 60s & early 70s in an atmosphere
more like your best friend's birthday party, a truly special
event in London Town.
