70's nights in Manchester
« on: 20:02:27, 19/08/08 »
I do believe there is a hotel somewhere in Manchester that has 70's nights or weekends
Does anyone know of it and more importantly has anyone been to any of the nights

that's ok, were the seventies any good, music-wise?   I get the era mixed up with the eighties

Kajagoogoo

Culture Club

Modern Romance


I always went for the hit song

I didn't buy any Queen albums until the nineties

I liked Marc Bolan's voice too

70's music was the best I did my growing up in the 70's T REX Led ZEp Free Deep Purple I loved my guitar riffs still do.
Yes I had read Arthurs profile sounds a fascinating bloke

70's music was my era, too.  Zeppelin, Bowie, Lou Reed, Pink Floyd, Free, Can, New York Dolls - saw them all.  I could go on forever (and usually do.)
