Fagins (Oxford St)

Fagin's was at 65 Oxford Street, Manchester and opened in 1970.

It was opposite The Gaumont Cinema, 44-50 Oxford Street, Manchester 1 (opened Monday, October 21, 1935).
Fagins had four rooms. The resident band at the club was The Bill Sykes Four.

It later became Jilly's in 1983 and towards the end Jilly's Rockworld.  Both closed by 2010.

Another club underneath the Oxford Street club was Rafters that later became Musicbox.

It was Rafters when I worked there. Mike Shaft was the DJ. I did know Paul Young but it was before Sad Cafe although I did meet up with him in Fagins when he was in Sad Cafe. Such a nice guy ?

I worked at Fagins in 1974 / 1975 and the manager was John Bagnall. He was there till it closed down. Great times

Miguel Ferrar was a Manager of Fagans.  He hailed from Ibiza, where I had worked with him for three years.  When he was manager I was working in the old CPA building for SunAir/Sunwing and the girls loved me getting them into the club, as Miguel was a very good looking guy.  Unfortuently Miguel died a while back.
The artist who stands out for me, who played there, was Joe Brown who was a fantastic musician.  A class club.
