Kilburn High Road
A Memory of Kilburn.
I lived in West Hampstead from 1960 to 1980. I used to love Kilburn High Road. I shopped there with my parents on a Saturday. We used to collect Green Shield Stamps from Sainsbury's shopping. There used to be a glass fronted shop in Kilburn Square where you could go and exchange them for gifts.
I used to visit the State Cinema. In February 1975 I saw the movie "Slade In Flame" there starring my favourite band Slade (suprise suprise). They actually called at the venue and collected their Gold Disc for album sales (of the soundtrack). Also, that year David Essex played there on his "All The Fun Of The Fair Tour".
I have great memories of walking home most evenings through Kilburn, when it was "safe". You just had to battle off the drunk paddies when the pubs turned out!
