Guest Carl Dixon Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Always nice to see and hear passion. Whether those artists from the 1960's or today, it is the same thing. With so many artists now unable to travel and not around anymore, it will be up to people like Sarah to continue this musical legacy for a different generation and those of course who like a live performance or two of classic soul tunes. Best of luck Sarah with your endeavours. You have done all this 'Just in the nick of time'! Nice article. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest jimvulcan Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I am the author of Great Music Never Dies, the US website that is referenced in the article. It is a music thread on Facebook that is devoted to the best in old school R&B. Here is the link:https://www.facebook.com/Great-Music-Never-Dies-102459816508722/ In my opinion, Sarah deserves a recording contract. I have been doing this for over 10 years and cannot praise her enough!!! She is like a combination of Dusty Springfield and Lulu...I simply love her breathy, sexy and passionate vocals!!! I consider myself somewhat of a music historian...and Sarah is the one of the best "Blue Eyed Soul" singers I have ever heard!! She has that magical "It" factor...a sound, style and look that makes your Spirit smile!!! I wish her the very best in the future!!! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Carl Dixon Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Indeed Jim. Of course, the music of yesteryear goes higher on its pedestal as the years go on. It needs big bucks and luck to get notoriety to some degree, so I guess for her, she is doing her YouTube and live appearance stuff which works right now. One day she will do something bespoke hopefully and on another level to Duffy for example. In the meantime I press on similarly with my song writing, trying compete with the golden soul era. Not easy,but slowly but surely. The difference most of my releases are new except 'Soul Girl' and 'I've got you on my mind' (The Delgonives).

Scooter Les Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Come a long way and great to see the number of gigs she and the band are getting, especially nice to be able to have them in the Capital at the old Capital Soul Club Venue and now the Soulnites All Dayers The Dome, a fitting place for their London debut methinks ;-) (9th Jun 2018) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Someone needs to clean their ears out, one of the best blue eyed soul singer ever 😆 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest MBarrett Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 This lady brings a smile to my face every time I hear her sing. Talented. Tick Beautiful. Tick Beautiful heart. Tick A breath of fresh air IMHO. I hope she sells out this venue and the happiness just keeps on spreading. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Professorturnups Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Sorry, but imho thus has nothing to do with northern soul. Just another average singer doing cover versions 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

My prediction it will be a sell-out and the joint will be absolutely rocking! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Now she’s taken to the road with a live band. View full article Great story, and one I did not know fully, just the bit about being seriously ill and using music to recuperate etc. I've no beef with folks singing the songs we love either like me whilst dancing or professionally on stage. Not keen on recording though with the hope of getting in the charts, unless for charity of course, but if it's got to be done, make it different, and not just a copy. Be original! Maybe team up with dad Phil and do August and Deneen's we go together! Ed 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Professorturnups Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 It's a nice story and I'm glad that this lady has made a good recovery and is using music therapy. I am just fed up with the amount of groups calling themselves a northern soul band. It seems to have become the next big thing on the commercial tip and some of them are awful.

Popular Post Chalky Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 Whatever floats her boat and those who like her, but it isn’t about the scene is it, it isn’t northern soul nor IMO is what this forum should be about, just further dumbing down of the music. If she is that good why not do something original. 5 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

If you really think she is one of the best "blue eyed" soul singers ever. Firstly skin colour has nothing to do with how "soulful" a singer is, secondly, lets be real here, not putting her down but she is a very average covers/karaoke type singer. Call a spade a spade.
