    Bloody hell that takes me back - late 1970s. Rik used to DJ at the Lincolns Inn - a bikers club near where BHS cafe is now (dont know the street name) -behind Probe.

    I remember him for always playing AC/DC no matter what you asked him for.

    I never went to that club but I heard a lot about it !!
    It was in the same league as Pickwicks or the Grafton 'grab a granny,' from what I could make out !!

    I think the Lincolns Inn was later Rainfords.

    Rik died in 2002. He'd also been involved in Radio Atlantis another pirate radio station. There's an article on him including soundbites at link below.

    1. Temptation @ the Uni circa 1989-1992. Loads of different rooms, underground corridors of intrigue, main dance area amazing, girls to fall in love with. Oh yeah and live bands like Suede.

    2. The (old) Casablanca. Red light-bulbs, bitter old bassads, curry on chips, the occasional milf/ neurotic nympho's, nympho students, Lee Mavers, Marlon Brando and Somali blokes. Great for skanky underground magical memories untill about 94' or something when it closed and reopened without the seediness or the magic or the Somali's.

    3. Planet X. Both in Temple St, and Hanover St this was an anti-scally institution. 1988-1992 were my years of rage!

    4. The State. 1987, a time someone described as the club's 'Smith's years'. Grand.

    5. Pink Parrot, Duke St. Like a lite version of the Planet. For a while it really worked.

    6. Mardi Gras. Never had the finest of nights here, never really had a handle on the 'direction' of the place and the music was always a bit too obvious for me. Was a good space though, in retrospect, compromised by a lack of identity.

    7.Heebeejeebee's. Mid 90's. Flu, girls, cliques, french pop, girls, cliques, snow, and flu.

    8. Le Bateau. It works.

    Watch this clip of the Quad it's unbelievable there was nothing like it,at the end it's as if someone has just scored the winning goal in the last minute of a European Cup Final or something,truly great memories of one of Liverpool's finest clubs.

    And then there's was the all nighter which was all of this plus 10,000 other party animals,fond memories indeed.

    Amazing!

    I have watched a few clips over on the quad site, I have a couple of the CDs too... Never will you find a club that rocks like that did.
    Although I hear the reunions are pretty mad too....

    Forty Years On

    Their electric guitars jangled in our ears,
    The Searchers, Liverpool, 1965--the stuffy
    Sink Club. We two-stepped cheek to cheek

    to "What Have They Done to the Rain?"
    Afterward, the bus trip to Tunnel Road;
    we kissed in a chandler's shop doorway.

    I can still taste your Beechnut chewing gum.
