Mel Waiters R I P

The Boogie Report web site is reporting that Mel Waiters passed earlier today.

I know he has been unwell recently and that all his live gigs had been cancelled.

Seems things have taken a major turn for the worse....... R I P.

Waiting for confirmation of Chandra Calloway hope this is untrue...made some fantastic tunes Mel...'got my whiskey' big anthem in '97...his other stuff on his own serious sounds label are great as well.and his latest 'wasn't supposed to love you' one of my firm favourites..

R.I.P. Souther Soul/Blues man Mel Waiters. Here's my favourite Mel track, lifted from what I thinks was his first album, from the days of the cassette tape compilations when we used to put each other onto the latest tunes.  My mate Reece Sestak from London loves this little two-stepper from one of my cassettes from way back when!

Sleep well Mel, and thanks for the music! x
