Just to continue.Does anybody remember this cellar club.Trying to pick up on some old times.

Used to go on Saturday night, I met my husband there, he was from Darnall.

Dear Rainbow,I may Know your fella,Darnall was a small place then.

Maybe he lived on Helen Road

Dear Rainbow.
Nope.

I remeber club 60, didn't it used to be in rthe cellars of an old pub.

Once went there with a mate of mine who was in the BMG (Banjo, Mandolin & Guitar) club which used to meet there regulary. Only went once, imagine 50 odd people all strumming away all at different talent levels.

RE club 60
I used this club quite a lot in the 60s. the lighting consisted of candels placed on the table(which was realy a beer barrel).They did not have a licence for alcohol(so you had to nip in the Ship inn for a quick one) the resident group was called Frankenstine & the Monsters. The lead singer(Frankenstine?) Was later known as Ray Stuart ,DJ at radio Hallam! Happy Days! Dave

There is a book about Club 60 & The Esquire full of great photos and stories. You can get it from:

went a couple of times with mates but our regular places where Blue moon, Mojo,and central as we livid in Attercliffe.

Yep the Club 60 was another Sheffield Icon of the 60's. We went there a few times & I think one of the things I remember most about it apart from the great music was the musty smell & the darkness. As was said previously the tables were beer barrels. Good club & always plenty of people in it.

I have just found my old Club 60 membership card, number 3763.
Happy memories!!

went a few times quite good saw dave berry there

Although I am way to young to have been a member of club 60, (I wasn't even a twinkle in my dads eye!), I do know alot about this place. About 5 yers ago, Friends of my brother, bought a shop next to the ship inn, opened a printshop there which produced the above mentioned book, But low and behold, when they first went downstairs to the cellars, they found the club, intact like in a time capsule, a little damp, but everything still in place. With a group of friends including myself, we got to work and restored it. Now, although not a club as such, it still is renown amongst the muso's of the sheffield music scene as a top venue for live bands aswell as a recording studio, and venue for private parties. It still retains the old look and the arched brick ceilings give it amazing acoustics not to mention, class!

Were you a drummer in the boys brigade at St Lukes, and later with JC ?

Fascinating to read about the restoration of Club 60. Whenever I pass I always think there should be a blue plaque on the door. I went a couple if times mid sixties and my brother was a member. He told me John Lennon was a member.

That's fascinating. I'd love to see it again. Is it really available for private parties?

Can you let me have any information about that, numbers, hire etc? PM me and I'll give you my email addy.

Any chance of opening it up one afternoon to have a look around to remind us of our youth ?

Hi would also be very interested in hiring out the club for a private party

Please get in touch

i think after it closed it opened again and it was called club 66 i may be wrong perhaps someone can tell me

Yeah, 1962, I was 17, I remember now, it was Club 60. Saw Jimmy Crawford there. It was packed and then some.
