Poster for The Clash benefit gig in support of the Carnival Defendants on 15th of October 1976, at the Acklam Hall, Ladbroke Grove. The Clash were there, they didn’t actually play, Bernie Rhodes thought the gig was too controversial and pulled them.

Replying to @TalesPan @FlipLondonTours
Good News is action has led to The Prince Charles Cinema being saved. Next up The Cinema Museum and Curzon Mayfair. Shame about most of Denmark St being handed over to Universal Music fat corps. U-Music Hotel, U-Music Venues. Shops there still Regents Sounds has a 25 year lease

OTD 15 October 1976, Sex Pistols supported by Albert Dock (later Yachts) played at a new club in Liverpool named Erics. Gig-goers report a mixed (& not large) audience including 'long hairs'! And the telegram confirming the booking #punk #sexpistols

#TinPanAlley Killed by greed. Rents paid now to an unnamed offshore Swiss Bank Account ??? Phil Ryan & I wrote this in 2017 about Tin Pan Alley #DenmarkSt seen in The Camden New Journal camdennewjournal.co.uk/artic… @TheMuseumOfSoho @OnLondon @sohosocietyw1 @FlipLondonTours @privateeye

Tin Pan Alley killed by greed!

Henry Scott-Irvine, one of the founders of the Save Denmark Street/Save Tin Pan Alley Campaign, now admits ‘we didn’t stand a chance…’

"Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue Why must you record my phone calls? Are you planning a bootleg LP? Said you've been threatened by gangsters Now it's you, that's threatening me Can't fight corruption with con tricks They use the law to commit crime And I dread, dread to think..."
