Worked in
Llandudno during the school summer holidays of 68 and 69 -
'in-crowd' coffee bar (next to old cinema in Mostyn St, don't
recall name who does?)and Seaforth Hotel (not recommended). Went
to Paynes every Saturday and Wednesday nights and the
Beachcomber on Friday (? hotel basement at the of Mostyn
Street). A fantastic time dancing to Hilks discotron? on the
prom-bandstand until late, trips to Manchester, girls form
Llandudno and Llanwrst etc. Regular Paynes crowd from Bangor in
1969 included Haden Price, Phil Jones, Medwin Coffee, Gary
Semakin, Peter Roberts (Prof), Dennis Tesco, Bruce Williams and
other less regular Colin W, Aled O, William G (Itch), Ian R,
Hughsey. Also girls from Bangor and Llanfaurfechan too many to
name - Angela, Linda and Kath (both worked in the Paynes tea
room), Janet M, Moira, Elleri, Carol G, Linda R, Shirley, &
friend from Llanfairfechan, Mads, Kim... Don't recognise too
many people from the pics seem later on, but recall some names.
I remember it all in colour ! Pic 71 includes from left Doug
Goodhall,don't know, John Ivor, Shirley Evans, Angela Jones and
Keith Jones (good friend of mine from infant school onwards). I
jumped out of the 'scene' in 1970 my part got too D scary (there
were casualties). The mod thing was great so were the 60s
sounds. I'm not into nostalgia , but this is hard to resist |

Would like to thank
everyone who has emailed with their kind words of my dad Peter
Marshall who died rather suddenly earlier this year, especially to
Alan Mackay with his little stories (and he tells them so well)of
when my Dad was younger, I still visit the site now and again as
my Uncle Ian(better known as Dan) jones and his wife jean also
feature in some of the photo's.
Love and miss my Dad so much, if there is anybody who has any
photo's or stories I would love to hear or see them and share them
with my sister Colette.
Once again thank you for sharing you kind words.

Just been
having a look at your site it's great to see all the old faces
and the men with HAIR.
Have
recognised a few of the unknown faces and I will e mail them
to you but I just wanted you to look at Winters photos
picture 5, the girl on the right. This looks like Lesley
Cross who works for the college in Childcare if not then it
could be her sister Karen .

I've only just discovered the site
although Rob did mention it to me last time I saw him in Tesco!!
I cringe when I look at the fashions - but in the words of
Freddie Mercury - it worked at the time!! I can remember
standing on the balcony and flicking fag ends down on to the
dancers below!! And Norman Gardner dancing to Spirit in the Sky
and when everyone joined in the whole dance floor would be
bouncing up and down - you didn't have to move - just stand
there! Brilliant site - strange how the girls don't look much
different - but the men!!?? |

Just found this site and thought you
might like to be dragged back to the Sixties when The Jets/Four
Jets used to play at Paynes Cafe Royal. Dougie Hare and sister Ann
were the singers. Also, playing there in 1962/3 were Danny Jay the
The Jaguars - all in the 6th Form at John Bright at the time. The
line up was Roger Thomas - vocals, Mike Collins - drums, Mike
Conway - lead guitar, Tudor Williams - rhythm guitar, and Ed Jones
(myself) on bass guitar. Martin Peal replaced tudor on rhythm
guitar in 1963. We all then went our separate ways. But we had a
fantastic time at Paynes. Happy memories. Ed Jones. |

Not sure if anyone is interested but
number 6 Aytoun Street Manchester has just re-opened. I kid you
not. Known in the 1960's as the Twisted Wheel. It has just had a
heap of money invested in it to give Johnie Ivor somewhere to go
when not on the Green Island.
If any of you old-timers are interested search www.thisoldsoul.com/wheel.html.
Apparently there is a "Doddy" room.
Who can this be? |

Thought everyone
would be interested to know Paynes had a mention on Stuart
Maconie's "All Singing all Dancing All Night" (Northern
Soul) programme on Wednesday 28 May and you can listen again on
the Radio 2 Web site this week (half way through the programme,
after the classic - "Wade in the Water")!.
Hello to everyone - good times and good memories! |

Just found the site,
only went to Paynes a few times as being from Rhyl, and a Palace
regular plus being a scooter boy around 71 time frame it just was
not the safest thing to do as we all remember those battles as
kids, regardless of being into soul music. I do remember seeing
Johnny Johnson and Donnie Elbert there. I know I went a couple
more times but can't remember when. I do remember many of the soul
crowd from there though from later years on the scene. Great site
for people to see their youth and come together today once again.
Cheers LA Rob |

Hi rob
thanks
for the mail. good to see the photos of john ivor,
I have a few
memories from those days but not so good with names. living in Perth Australia is one Alan Hughes
originally from Bangor, and one of the Welsh wheel crew. who used
to visit on a regular basis along with Harry and Tony from Gwesper,
Clive Porter and Geoff Dodd, Horrocks, Ian Jones. Dougie Goodall.
Postie, and so many more whose names elude me..
The band that was
playing the gigs round N.Wales during the late 60ts including the
Palace in Rhyl was "Just Enough" and I believe they came
from Queensferry.
Is it possible
for anybody to get me John Ivor's phone number, e mail address or
some way of contacting him.
Best
Vince
Thanks
alternative address for Vince's
Melbourne Souls site is
www.webqa.com.au/soul/soul.htm
but be warned this page needs
flash player for it work properly

As a girl I have
always been attracted to bad boys who write poetry. The FACES I
remember, the ones who really stood out ,they just had something
you know. In alphabetical order: Brian Craven, Geoff Dodd, Billy
Guy, Hiltz, Little Ian Jones, Keith Parry, John Ivar Roberts, Baz
shields and I could go on but time is short. It was a cool thing.
Please keep on dancing and does anyone know anything about the
Faces I remember? If so post what you know because I'll be
checking the guest book periodically,all the best and all my love
to all the Faces. |

Hi guys
hope the reunion went well.
Piccies seem to confirm this.
Like the sounds page, looking forward to newly found & classic
Motown + the Anthems.
Shades of Blue takes the award so far, for me anyway:)
Just noticed the "Cheater" track is carrying the wrong
'clip info', hope this helps.
Finally, I've put a link to the site on my humble page.
Best regards

I tried to post this
message yesterday but screwed up some where, I have just got off
the phone after talking To Dave Price and John Ivor at the Reunion
and it sounds like a great night as nights at Paynes always were.
I was in Llandudno for about 4 days in the summer along with my
daughters soccer team from Canada and spent about 20 minutes
outside of Paynes telling them what a brilliant place it had been,
that short visit down memory lane was nothing compared to the
photo section the first one I open included a very old and dear
friend Pearl Hobson along with many other faces, god everyone
looks so young but the eyes are all wide open. Well one must get
back to watching the snow fall, Hello once again to all the old
soulies Dan, Hefin, Ivor, Pricey, Howley and memories of Conn. |

What a memory I just
seen a photo of my old heart throb Pearl Hobson, plus a lot of old
friends and associates. Little Ian is in California living the
good life and I will tell him to visit this page. I just screwed
Dave Price up on the phone because I wouldn't tell him who I was -
promisd to phone him at the reunion tomorrow night.
I was home in the summer visiting with my daughters soccer team we
spent 4 days in Llandudno, Kimmel Hotel and about an hour outside
of Paynes explaining to her and her friends what a brilliant place
it was also had a beer a Jean's house on the Saturday night. I
wish I could be there tomorrow night a lot of memories had faded
having been away for so long but a lot came back after the summer
trip and now looking at these pictures, tell Dan I'm having a
flashback. It funny because a lot of the people I meet over here
from the Manchester/Liverpool area all remember Paynes after
spending their holidays in Llandudno. Keep up the Reunions who
knows maybe next year I can make it, its so strange to read names
like Geoff Pike, Howley, Doddsy, John Ivor, plus all the girls and
yes Pearl you are still my heart throb :) |

Well what a surprise
to see this site. A lot of the faces and names I recognised from
the photos, but an awful lot were younger and later on in the
Paynes era. Especially a group of young girls at the time, we used
to call them the "teeny boppers", odd really as we were
only 3/4 years older, but it seemed like a decade at the time.
Rebecca Holden was a name I remember as one bright young thing. It
was a great time and very nostalgic now to say the least. I and
others were originally Winters guys and we migrated to Paynes when
it opened so I think we were there at the beginning. I used to go
to Paynes with Barry Shields, Gwyn Jones, John Ivor, David and
Hywel Jones, Terry Lloyd to name but a few. Funny thing is you
never lose the "soul" do you? My wife and I always go to
see Edwin Starr when he is around London and the south, he is an
amazing live act. So to all who will attend the Reunion tomorrow
have a good night, enjoy and get "down on the floor", as
who used to sing??? Come on now, ok how about touch of velvet
sting of ???? fill in the missing word in the title and a bonus if
you remember the band.
Have fun

Only just found out
about the site - from Ann Williams (nee McElroy)! Have looked at
the photos but I don't think they had cameras in our day!! My
lasting memory of Paynes was when I was tripped up on a New Years
Eve (was going out with Vaughan Leonard at the time). Spent New
Years Eve getting my eye stitched up and still bear the scar! No
names no pack drill BUT the culprit who tripped me up came round
to my Mam & Dad's the next day - together with loads of people
and drank their sherry!! Come on - own up!! Will give you till
November then I'm setting the record straight at the reunion!! We
will all be there - me, Ann, Ruby etc etc!!!!! |

I couldn't believe
it when I saw this site and it all came flooding back - well
some of it at least. I showed it to my 17yr old daughter and 19
year old son(!!!) and they both said - you mean people went out
dressed like that???
I used to live in Albert Drive in Deganwy and have kept in touch
with some guys from school - John Griffiths, Ned Coackley and I
have a brother Glynn living in London and a sister Bet living
near London, who went to Loretto.
Keep up the good work guys - fantastic job.
By the way for anyone who has friends or relatives in Australia
who went to John Bright (or any other school really in Llandudno!!!)
we are having the second reunion of former John Bright students
in Sydney on Saturday 24 August 2002.
We found Anne Moore, Ollie Williams, Lillian Jones and many more
through the friends reunited web site.
I can be contacted on johnaj@bigpond.net.au

Just to
let Rob know I managed to find the site at last. For those of you
with bad memories remember Robert Redhead??!! the other half of
Discos Inc. along with Gilbert well I found an old North Wales
Weekly News advert for when we DJ'd at Paynes and in fact were the
last to DJ there before it finally closed down. I've closed down
many a fine place in my time. For all those who reached the big 50
this year, like me on July 6th, many happy returns.
For the soul lovers amongst us I still have many photos of artists
we promoted by The North Wales Soul Club ( which Robert and myself
started in 1973)along with posters and autographs...all gathering
dust! Looking forward to another great night in November and
seeing all the 'old' and familiar faces.

What a cool site,
thanks Dave, my memory of Paynes is a glorious dance-driven, drug-fuelled,
cider laced cocktail of teenage heaven with a heady steady Northern Soul
head-rush..and that was just on the way home on the bus !
Those days I thought my Ben Sherman and my two-tone tights would have to be
surgically removed I wore them so much. I have never been so emotionally
evoked by music since the days of soul and backdrop bliss and that's even
after seeing Rolf Harris this weekend live at Glastonbury Festival !
Hiya to my old Paynes mates...Pearl, Carys, Jenny, Haf
"balcony-hopper" Williams, Nia the Knuckles, Linda mur mur Smith,
Gina the screamer and Roz.
Look forward to exchanging memories and comparing wrinkles in November with
you all.

Great to see some of
those old names in the guest book. The memories come flooding back, most
involving my old mates Norman, John and Geoff. Those were the days of
our lives. Keep the faith. See you in November. Robin.
PS is Robert Redhead out there anywhere, if so drop me an e-mail. |

Fabulous that a place I have not been
for thirty years can have a website.
Had many great nights in Paynes although I wish I had stayed sober more
often to remember them. My outstanding memory was of Joey Jones
nearly losing his football career by coming back every weekend to fight
with the other "Parrots". Never see them mentioned
although there were a lot of them in the gang. |

Hi Dave,
I have a few more names to add to Picture 7. Bottom left is Jacqui
Owen, next to me Linda (nee Thomas) behind Suzanne looks like Norma (nee
Gamble), Andy I think is Andy Fitton, behind the guy on the bottom row
looks like Gail McCloughlin - hope this is of use.
I now live in Warrington although I still have family in Llandudno
namely Jeff Thomas who I think works with you at the Royal Mail but it
was my sister Gail who told me about the pic and the web site as someone
thought I was her, this is a great site and I shall certainly visit it
with interest and look forward to the reunion in November,

Owen and Denise Davies with Ann Hughes in front I am not sure of

I remember when I first started going
to Paynes we used to wear Adidas training shoes with jeans and suit
jackets. Strange that those Adidas trainers have now been
reintroduced as part of their Adidas Originals range (I work for Adidas
now) I remember that as well as being open on a Saturday night,
Paynes was also open midweek in the summer - I know that because Iwent
there the night before my Latin 'O' level exam and guess what - yes I
failed. I still like the old Tamla and Soul music and when I get
the chance I listen to it at home. I now live in Mold and work
near Stockport. I haven't been to any of the reunions yet but you
never know I may turn up this year.
All the best, the web site is very interesting and I've included in my
favourites
cheers

Keep up the good work Dave!

still shuffling away to such soulful sounds?
See you at the next reunion--I hope!
