Remember the Penthouse Club?

[*Wallace* 333]

I remember the long haired DJ think his name was Bob Maltby he had the Quo logo on the back of his denim jacket

Went a couple of times did not rate it.

Went a couple of times did not rate it.

 

You were quite right not to rate it. It was a dump, filthy, shoddy and could be downright dangerous on those stairs, but it was one hell of a good time with great music, despite all that.

i'm amazed i never fell down those bloody stairs it was bad enough climbing up them in the first place. amazing atmosphere when it was packed

Sixty three stairs to get to the sticky carpet could never count them on the way down must have had a few good nights there

Can just about remember Baby Jane the go-go dancer through the alcohol induced haze.

On that little gem of a site ' Sheffield History ' their is a thread about ' Penthouse ' with personal memories and to top it all inside photos showing wall murals done by a local artist . The photos are in colour I think it said they were taken in 1969 I doubt they survive but who knows has anyone been in the building in recent times would be interesting to see what remains inside?
