Jock's View Of Soul
Just got round to reading your mag Jock, roughly the time i parted with the scene and got more into the jazzfunk/soul alldayers buying more current lps and 12s. The article about Rob Melbourne brought back loads of memories as we became good friends with a passion for good soul music. Rob was a very frustated guy was always spending his monthly wage buying all the latest sounds from Bluebird Records be it soul or jazz, but as you said was fighting a losing battle against the comercial stuff when he dejayed in Edinburgh (though respected through the west T Jackson,Bob Jeffries,Billy Davies ect ). Rob moved to London and worked for E.M.I. and got into drum and base scouting the clubs and checking demos for the latest talent. Last time i spoke to Rob He was up for new year,went to the Cafe Royal(Bumpin n Stompin soul night). He gave me a couple of drum n base tapes, ave never heard so much shite in all my life. Thats the last time i spoke to Rob, the last we heard about him was from his ex partner. She told us he became a muslim and has become an iman living on a small island somewhere in Asia. Gonna try and get down to the Peebles gig to hear those tunes i missed out on and catch up with the lawman and yourself (think am due you a pint from last minto). Cheers Pete Doonan.

Richard Searling Book?
Dont think Mr Searlings got time to pick his nose just now, seems to be a busy man at the moment. Hope he does get round to putting pen to paper will be a proper good read from a hard working and respected guy in the soul scene.
