Burtons
A Memory of Uxbridge.
I remember Burtons, Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers, and other great groups. Always seemed to be on a Friday. At the interval we came out, and in Windsor Street there was a Fish and Chip shop where we had chips. We took them into a little garden with an arch at the entrance. We sat and talked, no ipods then!

Other times we'd go to the Byron, a real pain to get to and back as we lived in North Hillingdon. And I remember seeing the Move at Bourne School, of all places. The Starlite Ballroom in Greenford was a hoot too but even more difficult to get back from.
We'd see Steve Maxted sometimes on a Friday and (I think) a Tuesday. Those were pretty weird nights.
Burton's became the Acid Palace in 1969, I think, and I rarely went - we'd all left school by the middle of the year and went our separate ways, me on a trip round Africa and Europe as a gap year before anyone had thought of the concept. By the time I got back, I had different priorities but I'll never forget those crazy nights at Burton's.
