   About Zoot Money
FULL CIRCLE, the aptly titled new album from Zoot Money And His Big Roll Band, available to pre-order for a ludicrously low £7.99, is British blues legend Zoot Money's first live album to be released in 30 years. It marks a complete return to Zoot's musical roots (he was never very far away) and includes some 'never before recorded' material.

THE BEST OF ZOOT MONEY'S BIG ROLL BAND is, of course, yet to come. Even sooner than that pinnacle of R&B perfection, however - June 25 to be precise - you can purchase a superb compilation of Big Roll Band re-issues - the perfect companion volume to FULL CIRCLE and cheap at twice the paltry £11.99 it'll cost you to get it from Amazon. Pre-order the two CDs together and you may qualify for FREE DELIVERY (conditions apply).

Four decades and more have seen Zoot in the entertainment business. From his groundbreaking R&B show in the Sixties to the present day hes been a formidable contributor to the British music scene maintaining a career as a classic R&B singer and keyboard player.

He began his early career fusing R&B with jazz when he teamed up with guitarist Andy Summers (Police), tenor sax player Nick Newall and drummer Colin Allen to form the Big Roll Band, bringing a fresh sound to the R&B scene. Since his early days with Alexis Korner, Zoot has featured with The Animals and the Alan Price Band plus its offshoot, The Electric Blues Company. In recent years he's played in partnership with (amongst many others) Spencer Davis and the late Dick Heckstall-Smith, as well as Georgie Fame, Mick Taylor, Pete York and GoodMoney (formerly Thunderclap). 2006 has seen the birth of a new R&B "supergroup", the British Blues Quintet featuring Zoot's talents alongside Colin Allen, Colin Hodgkinson, Miller Anderson and Maggie Bell. Check their official website out at http://www.thebritishbluesquintet.com/

Zoot's songwriting credits include songs for Lulu and Long John Baldry, as well as Jimmy Witherspoon (It Never Rains But It Pours). Zoot produced the Tutti Frutti album from the television series of the same name in 1985 - the show which launched the careers of Robbie Coltrane and Emma Thompson. Soon after this he used his experience and knowledge to assist in the development of Melody FM, sadly now defunct. More recently Zoot produced Ruby Turner's album Call Me By My Name and Woodstock Taylor's debut CD Road Movie.

Alongside this rich and varied music career, Zoot has regularly been seen on our television screens. In addition to many commercials, he has appeared in Eastenders, Londons Burning, The Bill, The Professionals, The Piglet Files and Get Back (the BBC series that featured Ray Winstone in his only sitcom).

Today Zoot's huge talent continues to bring his own blend of experience and fun to entertain and amuse you. He's out on the road and ready to continue his affair with R&B .... all you have to do is bring yourself and your time. Enjoy .... you wont regret it.

NB This is the official Zoot Money myspace page. Accept no wooden nickels.
N very B - Zoot does read and appreciate all messages - heck - he even replies every now and then, however if a quick response is needed you're better off contacting him via his website: http://zootmoney.org/, which is monitored on a more regular basis than this page.

There's some alarming information that you should all know regarding BBC Radio.
Many of you will recall the Brand / Ross - Andrew Sachs scandal last year where the controller for Radio 2 resigned and the position was taken by Bob Shennan.
It seems that Mr Shennan despises most roots music to a point where he has begun to replace the specialist shows that Radio 2 is so well known for, such as Shake Rattle & Roll, with chat shows featuring sport and incidental pop music.
Mr Shennan is trying to find any excuse possible to axe Mark Lamarr completely off BBC Radio and I believe other specialist shows that feature DJs who hold a passion for real music will also receive the axe.

Long gone will be rock'n'roll, rockabilly, blues, reggae, ska, soul, vocal group, jazz & world music from BBC Radio 2, a station that for several decades has been a national institution.
What we all forget is we own the BBC. They're forever telling us it's our station, and so it is.
It's a public funded network, and we're entitled to have our say.

If this information means anything to you then you must complain to the BBC and let them know how you feel.
Fill out the BBC Trust survey at their website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/

Just imagine thousands of emails every hour to Radio 2. Spread the word, and who knows where all this will end up.
It might even be time for another march, but one things for sure, they ain't getting away with it.

Hi Zoot... You have no mention of the fabulous Dantalion's Chariot...
I saw them at Chelmsford Corn Exchange shortly after Pink Floyd had played there... and I was equally impressed....
Hope to see you again soon..
The last time was at 100 Club with T Rex's Bill Legend on drums
