Back to Love (Hacienda, Number 1 Club & Renaissance 'Mansfield' Classics)(Part 1 - The Number 1 Club 1992/1993) - Mixed by Mark Anthony (April 2021)
 
Just over a year ago I mixed a tribute to Manchester's 'Number 1 Club' using tracks selected and chosen from a list compiled by members of the club via the Facebook group 'The No1 Club Manchester (86-93)'. 
 
One Year on and it seems only right that we re-visit the 'Number 1' for another trip down memory lane... 
 
This time instead of doing a 'classics' mix I've tried to re-create a night and capture the sound & feel of the club from late 1992/early 1993. Utilizing some of the tracks I couldn't fit on the first mix and blending them together with the tougher more progressive music of the time I hope it gives you a feel of what a night at 'No 1' club with Tim Lennox on the turntables would have sounded like. Fingers crossed I've pulled it off....
 
I have to admit this really was a joy to do and although it's firmly a 'Number 1 Club' mix, I have to admit that by mid way through I found myself 50 miles south of Manchester on the dancefloor of another club in Mansfield, nr. Nottingham - the legendary 'Renaissance' (another place that holds many a memory).  Tim Lennox was really championing that early 90's Progressive House vibe made famous by Sasha, Ian Ossia & John Digweed. It's a sound that really doesn't get played much nowadays but really epitomizes early 90's club culture and I love it x

Back to Love (Hacienda, Number 1 Club & Renaissance Classics)(Part 1 - The Number 1 Club 1992/1993)

1990, or was it 1991?  The first hour of this is probably more akin to what was played at the Warehouse in Leeds in those years, but the mix could have just as easily been called Ricky's or the Gallery or named after any other club in the North of England for that matter.  The Warehouse was the first club I went to though and its a tribute to how blown away I was as soon as I'd blagged my way in saying I'd lost my mates, even though I looked about 12.  Those nights, and Boy Wonder especially were very special indeed.

Allister Whitehead's Return To Shine

With Allister coming back to The Hacienda for the Christmas party at Sankeys on 27/12/16 which sees some eight of the clubs original residents reunited, here with a very special mix which puts together the set he performed back in November 1991 on the first night of his Shine residency,

Following The Hacienda's re-opening in 1990, Shine was the Friday night replacement to the long running Nude and saw Mike Pickering and Russ take charge of the night alongside special guests who included the likes of Todd Terry, K Klass, Sasha and more. 

About the opportunity,  Allister comments;

"I was asked by Mike Pickering in 1991 to cover for him at ’Shine’  on Friday’s  while he was touring and recording with M-People. Not many DJ’s got the chance to play the Hacienda, it was like being asked to play for England!   Obviously, things went well for Mike and I became resident from 1992 - 93 on Friday’s at Shine and I did Tuesday’s as well for a while.  We had some great guests (Todd Terry, Kevin Sanderson etc...) and some special nights, including a few of the infamous foam parties, which were amazing and pretty close to the incredible Nude nights back in 88/89. To play the Hacienda at full pelt was a rare thing for a DJ apart from Graeme and Mike and has provided memories I will treasure all my life. Thanks must go to Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, Peter Hook and Ang Matthews."

Dusting down and digitising the same set from that night, Allister pulls together a number of the tunes that characterised The Hacienda in late 1991 including US club hit Brother Makes 3 to open. Union City Recording's hit Mombassa "Cry Freedom" follows up whilst the mix also includes carat gold classics, Denise Lopez's "Dont You Wanna Be Mine", Rusty "Everything's Gonna Change" and the Sasha remix of Jimi Polo's "Better Days".
