Mid 1970s, in Inge Street off Hurst Street if I remember right. It was a small place but impossibly trendy. You had to have membership and if you wanted to get in, you knocked on the door, a bouncer slid aside a glass panel and asked to see your membership card - then you got let in.
It had a bar down one side of its smallish main room, and a tiny dancefloor. The disco made a good sound but you couldn't spot the speakers however hard you tried. Then you looked up and there were these tiny little things perched on shelves in the 4 corners. Must have been the first Bose speakers in Brum.
I remember there was the occasional sports or TV stars there. West Indian fast bowlers Colin Croft and Joel Garner showed up but refused to sign autographs. Simon Williams and Lesley Anne Down from Upstairs Downstairs full of "dahling!" this and "dahling!" that.
The sign was green if I remember, with maybe yellow or gold writing. I only got a membership because I was friends with this guy who knew *everyone*. I don't know how long the club lasted for, but anyone else remember it?
