The Story of Club 60 and Esquire
RRP: £7.95
By Don Hale with Terry Thornton
Before 1960, Sheffield was very much a bed and work city. All night life ended at 10pm and if you saw anyone around after that hour they were generally on their way to or from work. Terry Thornton changed all that in 1960 with the opening of his live music venue 'Club 60' in the basement of the old Acorn pub st Shalesmoor.After two successful years Terry moved the club to Leadmill Road and re-named it 'The Esquire Club'.
Many Future stars, such as Joe Cocker, Dave Berry and Rod Stewart, played there between 1962 and 1967. Although Terry closed the club after five years to turn his attention elsewhere he had set in motion a revolution in live music that spread across the whole country. Later, in 1980 the venue was to re-open as the successful 'Leadmill' under different leadership.
