UK Stax/Volt Revue, March-April 1967
Thanks Kev and ulysses. I'll see if any of my contacts know Al Taylor and find out if I can contact him. Thanks for the info. I'd love those LPs but CDs will have to do for me for the time being! You're right about Emperor Rosko. He also compered most of the other shows. He was good enough to answer a few questions of mine, recording his answers on an MP3 file. It's by far the coolest email I've ever received! thanks again Stereojet

Hope so! Also, if anyone has any questions about me, I'll be happy to answer them (within reason, obviously). And, in case anybody's interested, the reason that I'm looking into the Revue is in part because my Mum went to one of the concerts and told me some really interesting things about how it affected her personally. I'm wanting to see if she's the only person who was affected in this way, or if it was widespread. Cheers all. I'll pop back on Monday.

UK Stax/Volt Revue, March-April 1967
Just to introduce myself and ask for a little bit of help. I'm a University lecturer who works on African American music in the 1960s (and bits and pieces of other stuff). I'm currently doing some research on the Stax/Volt Revue, which toured the UK in March-April 1967. I get the sense from browsing the site that you're more into your Northern Soul, but I'm wondering if any of you have any friends/relatives who might have been around in the UK during the tour? I'm wanting to do a few interviews with people who were there to try to find out a bit about their impressions of the Revue and what it meant to soul fans in the 1960s. If you have any ideas, please let me know!
