Read an interesting story tonight via the Times online website about a old soul singer named Charles Bradley who was "discovered" doing a tribute act in Brooklyn by Gabriel Roth, the founder of the soul revival label Daptone Records. As its a subscriber only site I don't know how to link the story.

Bradley was a "James Brown impersonator who had released his debut album at the tender age of 62." with his music being described as “testifying soul music reminiscent of Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett"

His first album " No Time for Dreaming" was released in 2011 and his second "Victim of Love" was released today - If anyone is interested it's on ITunes - For an "old un" i think some of his tracks are pretty good, particularly:

You put the flame on it

Love Bug Blues

Confusion

If anyone would like a transcript of the article, would be happy to PM.
