A demolished Liverpool nightclub that lived many lives before its final days was a place that generations of clubbers were "never out of."
The Liverpool ECHO recently took a look back at Snobs nightclub in Wolstenholme Square that in its time was one of the areas "in places" for clubbers. Back in 1969, Norman Baker opened Russell's on the site, which quickly became known as one of the North West’s premium cabaret clubs.
In its ten year reign, famous faces were known to regularly frequent the club, from Bruce Forsyth and Lulu to Bob Monkhouse, Tony Christie and more - but rising overheads and spiralling artists’ fees led to its closure in 1979. Later that year, Norman reopened the club, alongside his wife Maureen, after an extensive refurbishment and it was renamed Snobs.
