Well,its took me a year to find and read this article !!! well worth it............especially for someone like me who left the scene in the early 70s as a relative youngster, only to return in the late 90s..............plenty of insight into the scene and the many people mentioned in the article from all over the country whose dedication and involvement kept things going so i could enjoy myself when i got back into it...i know or have met many of those mentioned in the article and had no real idea of the sustained commitment of many of them to the music and the scene...cheers guys and gals ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the article is almost a roll of honour to the soul scene hats of to chalky ..atb..ez

great thread..............thanks ez
