Hacienda Fac51 Classics
Wot no updates!!!
Been very busy of late, so not much time to spent in The Acid House, so to keep you all going here is a selection of Hacienda Classics.
Fac 51 Haçienda (better known simply as The Haçienda) was a nightclub and music venue in Manchester, England. It was the best known nightclub in the world during the “Madchester” years of the late 1980s and early 1990s. The Haçienda opened in 1982 and despite considerable and persistent financial troubles survived until 1997 – during much of this time the club was mainly supported by record sales from New Order. The Haçienda is associated with the rise of acid house and rave music.

The growth of the Madchester scene was little to do with the healthy house music scene in Manchester at the time but it was boosted by the success of the Haçienda’s pioneering Ibiza night, “Hot” an acid house night hosted by Pickering and Jon DaSilva in July 1988.
Although peaking in popularity during the rise of the rave era with many events there, most of the money ended up circulating to drug dealers due to the popularity of ecstasy on the club scene. The Haçienda itself saw very little of the nightly expenditure. The resulting problems caused the club to shut for a short period in early 1991.
In the last years of the club’s existence there were several shootings inside and outside the club and security and relationships with the police were a constant problem. In 1997, this culminated in a near-fatal attack on a student who was then pushed into the path of a car . A group of local magistrates who had just visited the venue witnessed the event[4]. Although security at the club is one of the contributing factors to the club eventually closing, the most likely cause was finances. The club simply didn’t make enough money from the sale of alcohol, and this is mainly down to the fact many patrons instead turned to drug use. As a result the club rarely broke even as clubs rely on the sales of alcohol as the main source of income. Ultimately, the club’s long term future was crippled and, with spiralling debts, the Haçienda eventually closed forever in the summer of 1997.

Nice Post. I remember buying many of these track (when they came out) as a music collector/DJ in NYC.
A particular fave is Sha-Lor’s “I’m In Love.” Remember snatching two of these on the “Gertie” label.
