The Hope and Anchor, Islington
The Hope and Anchor is a pub on Upper Street, in the London Borough of Islington, and first opened its doors in 1880. During the mid-1970s it was one of the first Pubs to embrace the emergent, but brief, phenomenon of pub rock. With the decline of this movement, the pub went on to become a leading venue in the punk rock movement.〔()〕 The Hope and Anchor is still an operational pub and live music venue today, owned and operated by the Greene King Brewing Company. Venue Facilities have been improved via refurbishments over the years.
== History ==
The Hope and Anchor can trace its history back to when the building was built in 1880. When the Tally Ho in Kentish Town decided to switch from showcasing Rock Music to Irish Music, the Hope and Anchor became the venue to go to in North London. The nights grew and developed, under the stewardship of Managers Fred Grainger and Dave Robinson, both of whom later moved on to other things (Fred; to open a Club in Brighton, Dave; to co-found a Record Label.
In January 1976, the Venue was acquired by Albion Management and Agency, who installed John Eichler as the Landlord. In the light of numerous threats of closure, John organised various benefits in order to keep the pub open, with named bands returning to the pub and performing for only expenses. Ian Grant of Albion narrowed down a long list to a final 22 bands - all of which had played at the pub at one time or another previously.
The ''Hope & Anchor Front Row Festival'', which took place between Tuesday 22 November and Thursday 15 December 1977, featured numerous pub rock, punk, and new wave groups. The recordings were issued as a live double album of the same name, which reached No 28 in the UK Albums Chart.
