Top Rank, Sheffield
The Sheffield Top Rank opened in 1968 on Arundel Gate, before becoming the Roxy Disco in 1985. The Top Rank Suite, located on Arundel Gate in Sheffield City Centre, was a popular spot for music events.
It was considered one of the UK's most successful discotheques of its time, providing mass-market disco-style entertainment with its Steely's nights and Sunday night Improvision club, which promoted up-and-coming rock and punk acts[1][2][3].
The venue also morphed into more of a rock club in the 1970s, catering to a diverse range of musical tastes. The venue still exists as a destination for live music, and is now part of the O2 Academy Group.
Sheffield retro: Looking back at city's Top Rank - Europe's largest nightclub in it's heyday. Many would argue that SheffieldÃs sprawling Top Rank was one of the UKÃs most successful discotheques of its time in the UK in the seventies.

Im glad to hear The Top Rank may be reopening as a music venue again,those punk days were simply awesome.A great venue,plenty of bars,you could go upstairs and watch the drummer playing from nearly behind him.

7th JULY 1978 EDITION
The Clash, Chelsea, Top Rank,SheffieId
SHEFFIELDS burning, and it ain’t from boredom. The Clash are in town, see, armed with a bunch of new songs for the trek back to credibility gulch.
Here and now, it should be set down that I ain’t party to any Clash-backlash scheme, certainly not on this evidence. Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon, Nicky Headon: The awesome foursome are ( contrary to popular belief) NOT finished. In fact, if you asked politely, I’d tell you they were only just starting.
Yeah, so maybe the boys are a little richer than they were a year or two back, but so’s Jim Pursey for that matter.
Anyway. this gig made the `are they finished’ theories redundant; further, I’m none too familiar with the new material, but initial impression is that the next album should be a killer.
A ripple of excitement becomes a wave of near-fanaticism as The Clash beam on stage, and into `Complete Control’, which incites the local punky pogoers to move it some. No sound problems here, though Mick Jones’ mike blanks out after a few numbers.
We all know Strummer's a lousy singer, and he’s not about to deny the fact, but - Jeez - what a front man. His whole persona is at full flight, as he struts back and forth restlessly like some wild Devo-offshoot on uppers.
For the set’s last quarter, he dispenses with guitar, grabs a mike, and ... muffs the vocals totally. Somehow. it don’t seem to matter; could you sing properly whilst pogoing and throwing yerself about like some suicidal masochist, huh?
It made for classic visuals, anyhow ... `(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais’ is probably the band’s poorest single to date (bar `Remote Control’ which ain’t singles material anyway), but live - well, it’s a regular hotcake. The band pulled together, tightened everything up, dealt all the aces, etc: from then on, things heaved steadily uphill, until the rousing `Bored with the USA’ / `Janie Jones’ / `white Riot’ encore.
Nicky Headon has now slotted into the drum-seat perfectly, his aggressive, hell-for-leather style a neat compliment to that savage dual-axe onslaught. Collectively. the Clash possess a heavy stage- presence which only Jim Pursey (or the prime Pistols) could challenge. No, they haven’t finished ~ the tour a long way. As one of the earlier dates or this signifies The Clash finding their stride.
Chelsea, on the other hand, have been going round in circles for some time and without some truly striking material they’ll probably continue to do so: Gene October is a very fine vocalist, y’know, but `many of the numbers here were a trifle uninspired. However, they WERE caught in the spittle-avalanche as well, and who the hell can play with wet fingers? Chelsea sound real good on record, less so live. They do have the ability’. flow all they need is some ace material.
