About the Image
Open from 1990 to 1994, The Eclipse in Coventry was the UK’s first legal 24-hour Club.
DJs who came through the doors on the legendary Friday and Saturday all-nighters included original residents Parks & Wilson, Stu Allan, Sasha, Carl Cox, Slipmatt, Grooverider, Top Buzz, and many more who helped define the golden era of the hardcore rave scene in the early 1990s.
About the Photographer
Tony Davis grew up on Nottingham’s Clifton Estate during the 1960s and 1970s and began photographing his home city from an early age. This work led to a place on the documentary photography course in Newport, South Wales, where he developed a sustained interest in social space and collective experience.
During the 1990s, Davis documented rave culture across the Midlands, photographing club nights and venues at a formative moment in UK dance music history. Alongside this, he produced a substantial body of work focused on football grounds and supporter culture throughout the UK.
Framing
All British Culture Archive prints and editions are supplied unframed and include a white border around the image. Border widths vary according to the proportions of each photograph.
