[Dr Gloom 19888]

Aye nasty pre-nasty club bar I think I only went to the Ritzy twice like. Twice too often. I knew it would be shit and I was right.

 

one of the few times i went there a lad i was with pulled a slapper 10 minutes after spewing up in the bogs. classy

It was Bliss I worked in Alex. I kept Central Park special so I could go drinking there. One of a handful of places you could get into at age 14 ffs.

[Alex 30598]

Bliss Talk about an ironic name.

[David Kelly 1117]

Went to Central Park and The Ritzy about three times a week every week for about four years until I discovered drugs and Shindig!

 

I hated the Ritzy though I have to admit.

It was, you're correct (as confirmed by the vinyl copy in the cupboard. I thought it was but for some reason read the other day it was 1990, turns out that was a re-release) and unfortunately you took the orthopedic shoes back.

I dont have any need for the shoe as its not me that stands corrected.

It might sound dated now but Rakim's lyrics were so far ahead of the time. Honourable mention to Nobody Does It Better by Tha DOC as well. Such a shame his voice got fucked after that car accident.
