Mick Howard

Yeah sorry about that First time I've tried to insert a refosoul clip but obviously I haven't done it correctly. Mick P.S. I was at Mark Bicknells a couple of weeks ago & he was telling me about the van trip.......

Here's a mad mental one I've just remembered from the Stafford days (Keb spin as I recall) KING GEORGE-IM THRU LOSIN YOU-MIDTOWN - Mick

Yeah but you should Grant - I effin loved it when Keb played it & still think its great - mental yes but tremendous. Cats Eyes - that's the first time I've heard it in about 30 years and it's effin crackers but one of the reasons why I got into the scene in the first place 'cos there was nothing like it in the charts at the time - fantastic..... Here's one for ya; Paul Peek - I'm Movin Up Town Mick

Sure I've heard one or did I dream it? Mick

Ought to be massive? It was when it was played by Keb mid 80's or at least to my ears it was. Effin' top, top tune & still makes me want to dance. Mick

Mike Soul is a pretty difficult thing to put ones finger on particularly when you discover that a tune which you have always believed was sung/played by afro-americans isn't. To me then its a feeling both from the artist and yourself so I guess you are right in a way although I don't get most of those artists you mention. Mick P.S. I have an eclectic taste in music (so I'm told) and like loads from punk to reggae to rock but most of that 'ain't Soulful.
