Kev Cane Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Absolutely brilliant read, was there at Prestatyn, they were superb, my only hang up was that Lee Jones was not there, god knows how they would have sounded if he were there. The description of "I'm an average guy" is perfect in this write up and sums them up exactly in my eyes, every soul fan should have one on their shelf Kev Edited March 10, 2015 by kev cane 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Gilly Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Fantastic article as for the group well I have and will have a row with anyone this group were better than the Temps despite all the facilities that were laid on at Motown I think the Masqueraders vocals are tighter than most groups of that time 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Graham Anthony Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 A great read on a fantastic group. I attempted an article and discography back in the day for Derek Pearson's "Shades Of Soul" - forget which issue! I remember research on them was very difficult at the time and was incomplete, the internet is a wonderful thing. American "Goldmine" magazine reviewed that issue of the mag and gave my article high praise which chuffed me to bits at the time. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Theothertosspot Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 HOW BIG IS BIG, Don't get much, no, nowhere near BIGGER. What an insight to a fabulous, yet underrated (by the masses) group. Could only identify 4 records from hearing at venues (Wand, Labeat, AGC? and SoulTown) Any more? Fantastic read Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Will Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 A superb piece about an exceptional group, thank you. "How" was one of the first bunch of records that turned me onto soul music as a teenager and to this day, I still consider it a masterpiece.
