Anyone on the list know of ERICS, the legendary Liverpool club of the late 70's?


Right.  If you were there you were one of the elite, and if not, like me, you spent your life regretting that you missed it.  Killing Joke used to play it with a little known Manchester band, Joy Division.  Happy nights those.  Stranglers opened it, Sex Pistols played for it but round the corner, and would have done it twice too but got stopped.  Devo, Talking Heads, Jesus everyone ended up in this subterranean bar.  They did matinee performances for the under 18's on afternoons.  You could have seen The Clash there whilst still in school, they were fond of the joint, like Siouxsie and the Banshees and you wouldn't believe who else.


Well, a book has been published about the place and I cry myself to sleep reading it.  This was the place where Wah! Heat, Echo and the Bunnymen and the Teardrop (Julian Cope) Explodes all met up.  Wylie, McCullough and Cope actually had a brief lived band too.  The book Liverpool Erics, by Jaki Florek and Paul Whelan and its published by Feedback for £25.  So far I have one for myself and bought two for friends.  In Probe record shop naturally, had to be done if you know Probe in Liverpool.
