simonb Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Good afternoon ya'll, Can anyone help me? I'm fairly new to Northern (I come from a Mod/Funk background) I also start a local community based Radio SHow (based in Gloucester) next month. The show will be based around Funk, however I'll also be playing Soul - especially crossover. I'm not just playing records - cause I want to spread some knowledge about the recording/people who made these wonderful sounds. I'm after as much info on The great Senator as possible - Can anybody help? Simon Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 His "Call The Sheriff" on Whurley Burley is also a brill dancer IMO. There's lots of info about him (plus a photo) in the booklet to Grapevine's great "Northern Soul Of New Orleans" CD from 2003. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Oh yeah, by the way, his nickname was "Shagg" and he owned the label with the same name (responsible for Guitar Ray etc.). He also had the Hep'Me and loads other labels and recorded Charles Brimmer for Chelsea. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
