News: Fontella Bass - R.I.P


Recommended Posts


Memories of being in the lobby, late sixties, with me records (ar' kids hand me downs) spinning six on The Dansette spindle (seven would skid)....Fontella was always there....she has been a part of my life longer than many of my real friends.

RIP love x

Rescue Me and I Can't Rest are absolutely outstanding tracks. I remember getting the chills hearing both of these 45s!

By the way, does anyone need a new old stock copy of Home Wrecker/Now That I've Found A Good Thing? I've got (no kidding) a BOX full of them with the Ronn/Jewel/Paula sleeve.

Hi i wouldn't mind a copy send me details etc. Cheers Graham

Me and my late mate Phil Hague (god Bless him) were

on holiday it must be over 30 yrs ago in Benidorm, one afternoon we were walking on this street and could hear a record being played, what would seem to come from nowhere.The record was

Rescue Me, this immediately brought a smile to our faces.We located the music which was in a basement bar ,to which we decended and had a great afternoon.

RIP Fontella
