Fenster's Funky Sevens - Ep 36 - The Grove Social Club (1967 - 1997)
The Grove was a teenage disco in the Northside of Dublin, Ireland that ran for 30 years, from 1967 to 1997. and thanks to Cecil Nolan, who was the DJ for that entire time, and the music he played, The Grove became an essential part of the formative years of the tens of thousands of young Northsiders who attended.
In this episode, many of those who were lucky enough to have gone to the Grove share their stories and the music they heard there.
