Tim Lennox
1991

Tim Lennox was instrumental in bringing house, disco and rave to the gay crowds of Manchester via the Number 1 Club on Central Street.

DJ Kath McDermott – a Number 1 club punter writes:

“Tim Lennox played every single week to an ever-growing and adoring crowd of reprobates: rent boys, straight girls, queens, scallies, dykes and dealers. We all congregated in a heaving, sweaty basement to hear a phenomenal blend of house, disco, garage and rave on a heavy quadraphonic system with kick-ass lights in a fog of dry-ice and euphoria.”
