Great day shooting photos at Elland Road. Chris, Phil, Mike and Peter went to the European Cup Final in Paris 50 years ago - where Leeds Utd were robbed of the title! They shared their memories as part of our project.

Interviewed Danny Mass from Salvation about the late 70s/early 80s goth scene in Leeds.
“I was around at the birth of goth. But in the beginning it wasn’t called goth. That came after.”
Spoke to Danny in the (frankly stunning) Golden Beam in Headingley.

Did you know that Goth started in Leeds? Excited to discover the origins of Goth for our latest project. The Phono was key to the story... let me know if you were there in the 1980s and want to share your story. Currently diping into this book to help with the research.
