Over on the East Coast, in New Jersey's Rahway prison, Reginald Haynes was another inmate with a similar initiative. Reginald was spotted at a convict talent show by established music producer George Kerr and a group now known as The Legendary Escorts was formed. Reginald tells the extraordinary story of how the group's first album was produced, and of the changes the scheme would bring to his later life on the outside.

    Heard the advert for it and the music was pretty good, driving funky late 60s early 70s.

    Soul as a form of rehabilitation - I'll buy into that. Perhaps we can persuade the Probation Service to adopt it over here.. if Chris Grayling hasn't destroyed it completely .
