I went a few times in the early days before the house explosion. I remember just about everyone wearing white t-shirts, braces, cycling pants, white socks and doc shoes. It was a bit too cool for school for me and I didn’t love it. Then I went back in the summer of ‘88 on a Wednesday night and just remember being totally blown away. Went every week that summer. Remember buying a pair of Wallabees especially for those nights, as trainers were not allowed! You just knew you were part of something really new and exciting. It was fleeting though, and I remember the vibe really changed and became more menacing in the 90s. Also saw Jamiroquai and The Wailers❤️ Glad I experienced that time, it was really special.

Lesbian dj - "there were drag queens everywhere and people having full sex on full view,it was just beautiful" Obviously this is the point where the Hacienda started to go down hill 😢

My mum used to work here and her priest tried to get behind the bar while he was drunk

I'm 56. This changed the UK forever. WE changed the UK forever.

Pretty Sure Acid House…Came over by Holloway, Oakenfold & Rampling etc!!! Went London🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ They were the starters of Acid House over here…..Ain’t disputing that the Hacienda was there at the time….Used to go Shoom, Spectrum and Downham Taveren at the same time ish🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🙂🙂

So much money to be made, Fortunes won and lost , A moment in time never to be repeated .

Ive loved Motown music from the age of fourteen.Im now 66 and still love it😊

l'm from Manchester, l heard about the Hacienda but didn't go because l hated dancing and dance music. Being a miserable c... l missed northern soul too.

33:00 Correction: This fellow has been openly *HOMOSEXUAL* since 1967. Back in the 1960s the meaning of the word "Gay" had still not been *corrupted* to refer to homosexual or bisexual people. The word still retained its *PROPER* meaning of being cheerful, happy and elated!

Great band

How wonderful to watch even ♥

thats what happens when you turn a non judgemental club into a prominently dominant gay club, destroys it, should be for everyone, not just a single set of clientele. When i went there was all walks of life no one judged. but some people are greedy.

One of the best vibes, I have ever encountered, just a shame the gangsterism spoiled it all. Met some wonderful creative people and that memory will stay with me until my last breath. Stay blessed and thank you💯🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️

Alan Erasmus’s daughter falsely accuses innocent men of r*ape the sad little rat

THE GOOD OLD DAYS WHEN FUN WAS FUN. KNOW CAN'T EVEN WALK DOWN THE STREET WITHOUT GETTING CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE...

22:52 New Order should have left Factory then and there - by the mid 1980's it was all a pet project for the ego of Tony Wilson !

Singing voice of an angel, with an attitude of an old angry dude in a woman's body who just never enjoyed being a woman LMAO

This guy Paul Nolan Dylan this protest you know standing in front of trucks joining me in Melton off asking people like to be prepared for a fight after they if they want to try a movie a clown. It's like you don't know that you have to bring stuff in for the economy. You know that's how things work work and then sagging a copper because like you basically called me kids are you for mad? I heard just spitting drugs in this car and all that s*** even though with the flag represents you're a bleeding wumble. I'll tell you what I hope I meet you. I meet you in thing list ing place. You can videotape it all you want. You're talking shush

Hassi..if u know, u know....yeah,everyone' says its, you sound like a proper manc.. yeah, I'm from wythenshawe. Avin it large.

Thanks for destroying the scene, gays.

Fantastic I saw little Stevie Wonder when he was 16 at the Streatham Odeon Wow

Thanks for this

Hooky's voice is so unique

when a great singer and producer, meets a great writer, this is the result, long live billy, long live kirsty's music.

This Documentary should be part of curriculum in high-schools across Europe.

No one gave credit to Dusty Springfield for bringing Motown to uk

My grandparents are in their mid 70's. They still talk about the Motown Era and how much they adored it. They went dancing a lot back then.

Love Hugh ! 💖Lovely interview with Janice !✨💖✨

🖤

RIP Françoise! I hope you are somewhere as beautiful as you are. It hurts to say goodbye.💔
