Blimey its about time I became famous !
All HEROES AND INFLUENCES TO ME !
Sax, keyboard & (bad) guitar player in the great and the good of the indie scene of the late 80's and 90's. Played with various members of the Wonderstuff, Pop Will Eat Itself, Dexys Midnight Runners, the Bureau, The Beat, The Mighty Lemon Drops and others, before joining and selling out some might say into funk and soul bands.
Enjoying myself in one of those now-REBELSOUL- and you can see us at a venue near you in the near future.
I have uploaded a few tracks from my youth here, ONES by the SERIOUS RHYME SQUAD, THE HONEY TURTLES. KIT FORM COLOSSUS & THE RAIN DEVILS will appear from time to time. Also by popular demand I will in the near future put back the SALVATION SHOW tracks,, who featured MALCOLM TREECE and MARTIN GILKS (now very sadly departed) more famously of THE WONDERSTUFF & THE MIGHTY LEMON DROPS . I hope you enjoy, and let me know what you think.
Any personal favourites from that time that you remember please let me know and ill see what I have from very old tapes !!
All were demos except THE HONEY TURTLES which was a single.
REBELSOUL tracks will be taken from the last gig played, and anyone who was there mail me and ill add your favourite song from the gig.
Feel free to contact me if you want a sax player or keyboard player for a special occasion or session work, I am always reasonably priced - )
