after 11 years in the "modern soul" seat

I've decided to knock my Modern Musings column in Soul Up North on the head after 11 years in the "modern soul" seat. I figure 11 years is long enough for both readers and scribe alike! LOL

 

Anyway, I was reflecting, and thought that those of you with a broad taste or specifically into moder soul might be interested to see my very first submission from summer 2002. Quite scarry really because in terms of the record reviews it certainly doesn't seem like 11 years ago.......blimey!

 

Things like the use of the word "garage" are amusing in hindsight.......I haven't used that term for years and looking back it was a poor term but was widely used back then to describe a genre of music being played on the modern scene.

 

Anyway, have a read, see what you think/identify with!! Thanks for any support/interest along the way.......I have really enjoyed doing these!
