A very rare and amazing flashback onto the dance floor of the Xclusiv Nightclub.
This film was rescued from an old and very damaged VHS cassette tape that I came across by total fluke so, the quality in the first few minutes is pretty poor but it settles down fine just in time for the action inside the club
The original video was commissioned by the couple who ran the club (Annie and Pete Swallow) and sold or given to family, friends and regulars (£2 per copy). This is the complete full length video as originally presented. For those who were there that night, I bet you never thought you would see this again! *chuckle* 🙂
