Another repeat of this great tour by Barrie

VINTAGE SOHO - The 1950s

Jazz clubs, coffee bars and drinking dens

On our Soho 50's walk, I will tell you about the first jazz clubs and coffee bars, the drinking dens and a little about 'the ladies of night' as well as how the various immigrant populations who settled in the area, helped create a truly international mix of music, food and drink as well as creating an atmosphere where even the seedy side of life seemed to enhance the magic of the area.

There will be stories of famous artists, up and coming singers, songwriters and musicians, and the many other characters who frequented Soho back then and made it such a vibrant area

So prepare yourself for a meander through the Soho of today but be prepared to travel back over 65 years for a nostalgic trip through time.

The tour costs the usual £12 and for any questions or queries contact me (Barrie) on 07860911393 or by e.mail at bazaway@aol.com
