There really is some great tracks on there. The track he wrote for the paragons 45 is fantastic.

 

Good shout

Is Sam doing any live appearances these days ?

Hi Sean,

Grabbed this yesterday assuming it was just out but noticed Amazon indicated release date of something like September 2014! I was intrigued. ....

It is a new release this week isn't it?

Cheers,

Hi Mark September 14 was probably an early release date, most projects get delayed a bit, it was released last Monday. Ady

Great artist. Ridiculously under rated and under recorded.

 

Well done Ace/Kent for getting this material out there.

Hi there, sadly not. He's gone very quiet these past few years.

 

Most doubt he'll ever tour again.

did he ever record a version of this sean?

The songwriter supreme, and has singing isn't far behind, reminds me of a brilliant night at the Jazz Cafe.

Essential !-- Today is a new day and Gimme little action-Wow !!!

"Gimme little action" - very much in the same vein as "Touch me with your love" to my ears.   

 

Just a bit better than Sylvia's version on Vibration...

I haven't heard one Sean.

 

It's a really great record.

 

Common enough on 12" but I've always seen it as pretty scarce and always quite pricey for a major label 80's 45.

 

Still, worth every penny for the quality mate!

Your ears don't fail you JB.

 

Both songs written in a partnership with one Arlinda Whitehead.

Excellent compilation.  Had a few plays here this past week.

Sitting on a train in the quiet zone chillin out, this is a superb compilation.  I might just go back and forth a couple of times.
