Popular Post Peter99 Posted October 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2013 (edited) just found this on the BBC news page today .....nice bit about the one and only EDWIN STARR ....it was 10 years last APRIL when he sadly passed away .....got to have been up there with the BIGGEST IDOLS of all time on the soul -northern soul scene... .... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-23944922 and how nice is that from the beeb.... Brilliant mate, thanks for sharing that. A fantastic artist - one of the best in my opinion, a super vocalist. He's buried in the same cemetery as my dear mum - I can imagine his voice whispering through the trees, down the hilly cemetery. Me mum would like that.

Arabica Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Great post thanks...My wife and i were so lucky to have met up with Edwin & Jean for a meal he insisted on paying, he shared with us how he made some of his records, one thing that stuck with me was, Edwin always wanted to get a still of a clip from the movie Shaft, It was where Richard Rountree was walking in Harlem as he passed under the Appolo the featured artist of the night was visable it was Edwin Starr, well i managed to get this for him but it was too late he had passed away, i was so gutted, i gave it to Jean and i still have a copy,mal 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
