  1. Bobs sister Jennifer has just passed on the news about a upcoming show that is being held in Bobs memory Its taking place on Friday 26th Sept at a new club on the south side of Chicago, the event details from the website follow and the website link at the end will take you to further event info Sitting in the Park Forever: Bob Abrahamian Memorial Record Hop w/ Windy City Soul Club and appearances by Reggie Torian (The Impressions), Cliff Curry (The Notations), Doug Shorts (Master Plan, Inc), Keni Rightout (Center Stage), Hollee Thee Maxwell When Chicago soul record collector/historian/archivist Bob Abrahamian died earlier this year he left behind perhaps the most complete collection of rare Chicago vocal R&B 45s and an invaluable archive of hu over a hundred interviews with unjustly obscure local artists recorded for his Sitting in the Park radio program (on WHPK) and made available on his sittinginthepark.com Website. Though record collecting can be a cutthroat field, Abrahamian was kind and moral in his pursuits, not only committing himself to sharing the music and stories of his heroes, but also befriending and helping out these retired musicians, generously offering them his time, money, and computer skills. Not surprisingly, when word came out that Abrahamian’s family needed to raise funds to archive, preserve, and digitize his collection, many of his colleagues and friends in the Chicago soul scene were anxious to lend their talents. For this fundraiser Windy City Soul Club ( http://windycitysoulclub.com ), Chicago’s premiere rare soul, all-vinyl dance party deejay collective (whose monthly events at the Promontory’s sister club The Empty Bottle are always lively affairs) will make their first journey to Chicago’s South Side, the home of the music they spin. In addition, many of the artists featured on Bob’s radio show will appear to share their memories and perform some of the songs that Bob loved playing on his show. Reggie Torian began his recording group with the Enchanters, entertaining South Side audiences at the High Chaparral on Stony Island, until his fine falsetto earned him a 1972 invitation to replace Curtis Mayfield as the lead singer of the Impressions, a position Torian still holds today. Cliff Curry formed the Notations in the 1960s, and their classic 1971 single “I’m Still Here” made them one of Chicago’s most beloved sweet harmony acts. Curry continues to tour the world with the group. Doug Shorts recorded private stock soul singles with his group Master Plan, Inc. in the 1970s, which are now so rare they trade for $1000 each in eBay. He re-launched his career in 2012 with critically acclaimed soul/dance singles on the local Cherries label. Keni Rightout recorded in the 70s as a member of Center Stage, whose singles were produced by local legend Donny Hathaway, before launching a solo career in the 80s on SalSoul records. Holle Thee Maxwell proved herself to have one of the most distinct voices in Chicago soul when she recorded for Constellation, Star and Curtom in the mid-60s as Holly Maxwell. Thee Blonde Bombshell continues to enjoy international success as a blues and Northern Soul artist. The Promontory is proud to host this event honoring a collector who called Hyde Park and the community radio station WHPK home, and who so thoroughly celebrated the South Side Full event details can be had via this link... http://promontorychicago.com/?event_id=5379215

  10. Northern Soul All-Weeker Sun 07 -14 Sept 2014 View full article
  11. Had the below passed on ‘THE NORTHERN SOUL ALL-WEEKER’ Sunday 7th September — Sunday 14th September 19 events across the UK to celebrate the release of ‘Northern Soul: The Film Soundtrack’ To coincide with the release of the soundtrack to youth culture film of the year ‘Northern Soul’, 19 venues (and counting!) across the UK will take part in a nationwide ‘Northern Soul All-Weeker’ to celebrate the launch of the soundtrack and forthcoming film directed by award-winning photographer, Elaine Constantine. This unique series of filmed events kicks off on the 7th September at Wayne Hemmingway’s hugely successful ‘Vintage By The Sea’ Festival, Morecambe. Set in The Soul Casino, the most evocative of venues, the sounds and style of the classic 70s soul club are revisited and will feature iconic film footage and filmed dancing. Curated by legendary Northern Soul DJ Richard Searling, special guests include Blackpool Mecca icon, DJ Colin Curtis and Wigan’s Young Soul DJs Jordan Wilson and Ben Hindley. A packed dance floor is expected as Northern Soul fans across the UK come together to celebrate the scene, the music and the film across 19 venues over 7 days. Interviews with promoters and fans, including some filmed dancing, will be included in the films’ specially-edited social media release on the day of the launch. The ‘Northern Soul All-Weeker’ will be a fascinating snapshot of today’s scene via some key venues and should make an interesting viral film from the week commencing 15/09/2104. ‘Northern Soul’, the film (released 17th October on Universal Pictures UK), tells the tale of the DJ-led movement that developed in the North of England in the mid-seventies, sparked by the discovery of black American soul music. Featuring performances from Steve Coogan (Philomena, The Trip), John Thomson (The Fast Show, Waterloo Road), Ricky Tomlinson (Mike Bassett: England Manager, Clocking Off) and Lisa Stansfield (The Edge of Love), this is a story of a youth culture that changed a generation and influenced songwriters, producers, DJs and designers for decades to come. Released 15th September on Harmless Records, ‘Northern Soul: The Film Soundtrack’ is a 2CD + DVD package which celebrates all the key Northern Soul tracks from the film on CD1 and further musical inspiration from Elaine Constantine on CD 2 - some 54 iconic tracks from across the different eras of the Northern Soul scene. The DVD includes a special interview with Elaine Constantine by actor James Lance and a bonus interview with Richard Searling which includes a slide-show of his personal memorabilia from the golden age of Northern Soul. With 7” vinyl at the epicentre of the Northern Soul scene and original records still establishing world-record prices in collecting circles, Harmless Records has also issued a collector’s 7” vinyl edition of the soundtrack which is bound to cause a stir amongst the Northern Soul fraternity. All tracks from the film soundtrack have been exclusively licensed including one bonus track for 14 x 7” discs in full pic-sleeves featuring key scenes from the film, together with a specially commissioned 60 page hardback book of film stills edited by Elaine herself. Housed in a solid collector’s box, these 14 discs present 28 of the greatest Northern Soul classics of all-time, many of which are making their legal UK release for the very first time including Lou Pride, Gwen Owens, Freddy Chavez, The Luther Ingram Orchestra, Eddie Parker, The Salvadors and Sam Dees.

  14. The Soul Junction people have just passed on word of an interview that is available via the UK Vibe website. Michael Edwards at UK Vibe interviews Elliot Macauley who as you may be aware has just been involved in the latest Soul Junction 45 release. Elliot Macauley - All My Life (Ft Joe Leavy)/ Mamas Baby Boy (Ft Cleveland Jones) It's a fully featured article complete with video and such. Up here... http://ukvibe.org/interviews/elliott-macauley-2014/ Elliott Macauley 2014 “Everything’s live, I mean all the guitars are played in live, the bass is played in live, all the vocals are done live. The only time I use software is creating string arrangements, horn lines and stuff like that. But the majority of things, all the guitars, your basses and stuff, that’s still played in live. And I think that’s what gives me my sound.” Elliott Macauley
