Here’s the final 45 minutes or so from the very last allnighter held at Wigan Casino in 1981. If you visited the Casino and still have fond memories of it - I’d grab a hanky if I were you because the atmosphere on this tape will bring a tear to your eye. Probably.

fantastic stuff from September 1974….only 43 minutes worth but do keep listening to the end for some great atmosphere and surprise tracks. The purists may find some of the selections bizarre in this day and age, but it was all good fun back then.
