New Prelude

I have fond memories of the Prelude from the 70's into the 80's.
Loved that art-deco mosaic mirror bar!
Gettin' sloshed and sweated up dancing there, then stumbling up the street to do last call at The Raven.
Later on......fun down at the towpath :)

Themz were the days!
And I lived to tell about it!

Hi Everyone, I'm the orginial DJ, before it was the New Prelude. I started in 1973 with Tom Reddy and the Drag Shows. I left in early 1975 to work at January's in New Hope. Came back to the New Prelude in late 1975 and stayed until 1985, worked with Joe Perry. Best time of my life!!!

Sorry no pics but yes it was the place to be.I drove all the way from morris county nj,in my 1966 Electra,think of the gas imust have used.Someone please try and get some more pics of those happy times ,but look we still have the MUSIC.

M.H.J.

Wow I do remember the prelude....best club around.
You were a great DJ.
I have some tapes you made for me. I worked there for about 6 years as a door man.
Would love to see more pictures.

I was the D.J. at the prelude From 1982 to 1989. What Great memories I have.
Still have all the Records!!

I have some pictures of the exterior of the Prelude after it was closed (before it was demolished). I will try to dig them up. I, too, have fond memories of this place! I live within walking distance of it now but the sight is now a very attractive bank (still, it's not a dance club!)

Does anyone have pictures of the exterior of "The Purple Palace"? Been searching for years!
Loved this place - spent every Saturday night there and many a New Years Eve.
