Those "Boys" TWA (Trannies With Attitude) sure knew how to rock the place. They were the resident DJs at Vague in Leeds and used to play some fantastic tunes back in 1993.
Vague was one of those clubs that you had to see to believe. Very gay, very camp, but the girls in there were fantastic and most importantly the music and atmosphere was simply amazing.
Being strictly hetero lads (and girls) it was always a challenge to get in as Madam JoJo would scrutinise and question you on the way in. Madam JoJo also features on the track and can now be heard hosting on Galaxy 105.
I remember being there when this track was played live for the very first time.
It was put on last track of the night with the first acetate pressing, as you can imagine the place absolutely erupted and this went on to be the Vague anthem.
Turn up the volume loud and go crazy to this one. Oh yeah the disco bicuits helped too!!
Disco!! Disco!! Disco!! Disco!! Disco!!

This is a track i'd heard a couple of times but which i lost touch with - i used to go to the leeds warehouse in the mid nineties - just missing the TWA residency - and the sat nights were indeed legendary.

ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. btw there are quite a few of us gays who read your blog and don't forget many many djs / producers are gay. cheers 4 all the hard work. yes we know you are straight, good for you '-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment.
ReplyDeleteTo me that is the beauty of dance music, it doesn't matter what gender, creed, sexual orientation you are, it's all about the music.
I've had some wonderful nights clubbing at gay clubs and fully respect that some of the all time great DJ/Producers are/were gay. Larry Levan and Frankie Knuckles are just two who spring to mind.
Acid House was all about the coming together of all cross sectors of society. Long Live Acid House and fantastic house music.
Best regards, PCC
