So sad to hear about your brother!

Stumbled on this great channel quite by chance. Not sure why he doesn't have a 1m+ subscribers - the content is just what visitors and residents of London need, once you've done the Eye, Madam Tussaud's, History Museum and all that shit.

Jules ..........sorry for your loss. The Video (in part as nothing can replace a loved one) is a fitting tribute to your Brother. RIP

Rest in Paradise Terrence. I too lost someone dear last Saturday. Always they live within our hearts.

Loved this video. Between 1969 and 1971, Soho was my patch. I rented a tiny little basement photo studio in Gerrard Street, opposite the Tailor & Cutter magazine. To contribute a couple of personal musical reminiscences I once saw John Lennon and Yoko Ono leaving Lee Ho Fook's, in Macclesfield Street. I made De Hems, the Dutch pub which was just opposite, my local, and there one afternoon had the honour of buying a couple of pints for Eric Burdon (of the Animals). To shamelessly take this name dropping to the limit, I should also mention that I also photographed Mary Quant, the inventor of the mini-skirt. Ah, the swinging sixties...

Excellent stuff Rob. I used to work at Keith Johnsons on Great Marlborough Street in the mid-eighties. Walking down Wardour Street in my lunch hour one day, I literally bumped into Phil Collins as he stepped out of a doorway on to the street. I nearly bowled him over!

Thank you for making me feel like I’m London when I’m not in London.

I’m a HUGE David Bowie fan but I had no ideia these things were in London. I’m staying here for a short while and thanks to your video I was able to get a little “Bowie tour”. Thank you so much!!!

Lost my brother some years ago. RIP to yours Julian.

OMG, I used to hang out with that bloke in the shades at 11.30. His name is Guy and was one of Bromley's top punks decades ago, and has run a punk club and magazines in Germany ever since. And yes, he was in a Billy Idol video. Billy's mum lived round the corner from him and they were close mates. Great geezer

So sorry for your loss! I'm sure Terence is in heaven playing rock n' roll with the big guys.

I agree. It’s all so sterile and lonely now. Probably why most modern music is shite lol

I remember once playing In a punk band in 1981 supporting Chelsea (Gene October) in Meard Street but it was then known as Gossips

Julian u don't need the BBC . utube is the way to go nowadays. can guarantee u'll get far and beyond your dreams . . u r right on track Jul!

Denmark Steet in the 70s and 80s was amazing. I miss those days. Chris and Dicky in Rose Morris a right pair of characters.

Thanks Joolz. Always enjoy your guides. Keep up the good work!

Falling in love with London again - bravo!

Absolutely love you videos. I'm from Scotland, but come to London a couple times a year. Very informative and humerous . Would love to catch you up on your tours one day.

8:50 The Intrepid fox was were Rod Stewart first met Ronnie Wood. Apparently Rod had a black eye at the time and Ronnie said "Hello face" to which replied "Hello face". Low and behold a few years later they were in the Faces together.

Cool walk through Soho. Having wished to visit England all my life, this is a great tour of so many wonderful musical memories.

Deeply sorry about your loss. Sending much love and prayers.💙🙏🏻 God bless you now and always.

Thank you for having such a high opinion of us, your viewers/fans that you would share with us the loss of your brother. I am truly humbled and offer my most sincere condolences to you and your family. This is actually one of my favourite videos, thank you for sharing it. Sincerely, Jon

So sorry for the loss of your brother! May he Rest in Peace! Loved this episode. Interesting listening to the lyrics of the song.. it's Jolene's answer back to Dolly! xx

Joolz you brighten up my day - thank you!

I'm glad I was in and around Soho while it was still rocking. Sad to see it now.

Every Friday night I open a bottle of Vino and watch Joolsz Guide.. I love the history and banter..thanks Joolz!

Always Amazing!

You are quite right; a suit in Japanese is indeed called 'se-bi-ro'. Great video BTW...I'm a Bowie fan so it was super interesting discovering new things about him 👍

Your video logs are outstanding. I’m so glad I stumbled across them recently!

Thanks for this very enjoyable tour! Music does indeed rule!

Completely addicted to this channel. Feels like a stroll with an old mate....wonderful stuff!

Great vlog...brought back great memories! Cheers!

Totally addictive videos. Love the information. I lived in Britain for 35 years, danced in London where Dean Street was for ballet shoes and auditions, and there is so much I am learning from this video.

I've forgotten how great a city London is but your videos are reminding me again. In 1997 I stayed a week near the British Museum and would walk to and fro from Soho and Soho Square every day. It felt like the center of the world at that time. Have been to the city 3 times (from Canada) and am vowing to go back in the not too distant future.

Brilliant. I find myself enjoying Joolz Guides videos all the more since lockdown began in March last year. Initially it was 'to tide me over until we're back to normal again'. Increasingly starting to fear they are relics from a lost golden age.

London has it all.

From Sydney Australia, enjoyed this, thank you.

Omg! may be most taking it for granted but your stories are gold!! 🤩 love it

@Joolz Guides ... So very sorry to hear about your Brother Terence. I am sure He would have appreciated this lovely tribute Joolz ... much peace to you and your Brother.

One of your best Joolz. It brought back many memories of my teens. So sorry to hear about your brother. Perhaps in his memory.......... A Julian and family lived here dedication? Rest in peace Terence.

Great video as always. London has so much history, I am a Scot living in Madrid and these videos really inspire me to create better, useful content. If you're ever in Spain I'd love to show you the inside scoop. Also I'm sorry to hear about your brother, I too have lost a sibling and wouldn't wish it on anyone. All you can do is live the best life you can while keeping the memory of him alive.

Sad to hear about the passing of your brother, but can't think of a better tribute than a musical tour of Soho.

This video, as well as others in this channel, is a gem!

Spandex Nappyrash , I LOVE IT !

Love your videos! And I love London.

A nice fun tour of Soho. Thanks Joolz.

It was the second door, I was a cloak room boy there when it was known as Gossips which was still mostly a goth and rock club a good 15yrs ago. I never knew the whole time I was there that it was formally known as the Bat Cave but there was a small area out the back that was referred to as the Batcave.

Great! Yes, i vaguely remember Gossips myself.

Brilliant. When I first moved to the wilds of Dagenham in 1989 o spent many free days travelling by tube around the capital visiting Dingwalls, Marque, Cart and Horses in Canning Town, etc. Thanks for memories. Hello from Toronto Canada

Great video sir. We stayed in Soho this summer. What a great city! We drank in the same pub you end the video in (best beer we had in London) Keep up the good work. The videos bring me back to our vacation. Can't wait to go back. Cheers!

Sabiro....I live in Japan, have done for 20 years,,,Yes that is true...My wife, a Japanese lady couldnt believe it,,,but is is true. As an aside,,,,,love these videos!! It really does save me from going back to the UK!! The Mrs can see London,,,,without going there!! Thank you young fella,,,,Just so good!

And to think that I was walking around the streets of Soho oblivious to the musical history around me but I did see the building in Saville Row where the Beatles played they last gig 👍👍👍

Cheers for this & the other great videos. Also cheers for helping me discover the awesome track being played here, top man 👍

I think this might be your best video. Tremendous stuff.

Brilliant as always!!

It’s a bit late but sorry for your loss of your brother jules,great video,Chris

I love you, Joolz! You make me so happy when I watch your videos. ☺️ Bless you and your family, and I am sure your dear brother's spirit is feeling the love you always convey. ❤️ Thank you for all you do and all that you share. 💗

Well done Joolz, another highly entertaining and informative video, and loving the music too, so much so I've just acquired your sisters album on spotify

Just found your channel today joolz. Brilliant very interesting. I worked in London for some time and been in some of the places you've shown in various videos . Never imagined the interesting facts about them . My new favourite channel 👍

Hey Joolz...., Been watching your KZread videos via my vpn here on China. You've helped me understand so much more about London and I'll be visiting soon and will definitely follow your advice. Many thanks. 😊

Love all the music history in Soho

Cheers for watching again

I saw *The Damned* at *The Marque* probably around *1978/79* thinking at the time I was lightweight & had missed the boat! Mate of mine also played there in a band with Zep's occasional drummer *Jason Bonham!*

Loved this.... not least for introducing me to Lil' Lost Lou - classic stuff

Marc Bolan (Mark Feld) hung out at the 21"s while his mum worked on a stall in the Brewick street markets and Bolan used Trident studios for most of Tyrannosaurus Rex and Electric Warrior as T.REX. Bolan and Bowie (David Jones) first met in the Soho offices of their manager Leslie Conn as recently dramatised on Sky arts.

Stopped in this channel by accident and right after the second video i suscribed. What amazing videos and best of all what an amazing way to explain every place. I lived as an exchange student in london and i wished i could of seen this videos before, oh well just another reason to go back.

joolz, thank you for this great vid!! i’m a fellow vinyl lover and this is the part of london i’m going to first! that said i dig all of your vids-even tottenham. rock on and rip to your brother…ps lil lou can wail! great soundtrack🎸

This is a bloody great video. Lotsa solid info told in a fascinating maner. Thank you.

I love the music on these videos, Joolz should do a playlist somewhere

Brilliant video - love watching your videos being a Croydon gal. So much knowledge - Thanks so much - RIP Terence. Rock on

Regarding the 2IIsnext door was the heaven and hell coffee bar That was where the mods hung out back in 1962 i went in both and as a young rocker had no problems at all

Amazing! Thank you Joolz!

Brilliant vids and I will certainly be taking a tour with you sooner mate. Sorry to hear of your loss.

That was awesome, thanks!

Absolutly fantastic!!

Great work. Congrats.

Fascinating. Keep going....

Steve Jones lived there. It was their rehearsal room. They filmed a few videos in there most notably the footage for No Feelings. The guy who owns the guitar shop likes to mess people about saying you can go see then drawings, and then pretending he's not the person you spoke to... The first ever Pistols gig was there indeed and they fell out with Bazooka Joe and had to wheel their gear over the road from Denmark St. I could go on and on about that area. Goth started in Leeds and Wakefield of course, and I remember going to the Batcave when we played down there. Also the Marquee when that was on Wardour St. Soho was a great area.

Wow, wish I had a Tardis: would head straight back to Soho in the early 70's and would probably stay there for good. Fantastic video.

Que buen paseo, cuanta historia musical en Londres . La proxima vez que viaje hare este recorrido . Saludos desde Argentina !!!

Wow!!! now there is some incredible music history!

Love it...this is the video I’ve been waiting for. I was in London back in July and I’m mad I missed some of these locations. I did find the Roxy in Convent Garden though. It’s a Speedo store now. They politely asked me to stop filming when I was in the store. Sorry to hear about your brother.

I’m from finchley and really enjoy videos, I especially loved the hampstead tour

Another good one Julian!

I can’t wait to get back to London in December! Let’s all pray for little or NO rain... thank you for another great tour!

Amazing you make so many people want to follow you around on that tour! I for one would be like a giddy child in a candy store walking around there!

at the back of what was/is Andys guitarshop in Denmark st, a 16th century barn was discovered and converted into a very small but perfectly formed music venue called "the twelve bar", very trendy, it became quite the thing to do a gig there in the late eighties' ? I don't know if it still exists.

This is what you expect from a typical English bloke. Cheesy, quick witted humour. Love it

Another great vid

I'm sorry for your loss, Jules. It was thanks to this video that I found out that we had to go to the end of the street to find the famous telephone kiosk. I just wanted to thank you, you made my visit to London very special.
