Brushin' Up

Rayleigh, Essex, 1978. At the height of disco fever, the new Crocs Night Club chose to promote the alternative scene. In the early eighties it became the venue for the New Romantics. Depeche Mode, Spandau Ballet and Culture Club among many others used Crocs to showcase their stage routine before going nationwide.

From the early to mid eighties under its new venue name, The Pink Toothbrush, it remained faithful to the alternative music scene, playing host to Goth, Psychobilly, Northern Soul, Hip-hop and Acid house. 1989 saw the rise of a music which embraced dance music and fused it with indie guitars of The Happy Mondays, Stone Roses, etc. The Toothbrush appointed Saturdays the Indie-Dance night and Fridays would cater for Alternative Music on a wider spectrum. In the present day, Friday Night at The Brush has been focusing on the harder edge of Rock & Metal. It is soon to become Club XFM night and I'm hoping that they don't lose the edge.*

For now, this is an interesting selection of tracks inspired by my Friday Nights at The Brush. Enjoy!
