Interesting read steeljack, some very big words so it made me use my brain which isn't easy when I've got a headache.

Re: soul music in the UK
Sorry to see Georgie Fame did'nt get a mention in the Independent article. I think he played a major, roll in 60s soul music, did great covers of all the popular, soul songs of the time. Played all the great clubs of the time, from the Wheel to all the Mecca's, Flamingo, Marquee, and still fantastic, What a talent, or does anybody think he,s overrated, god forbid.

Georgie Fame overrated? You have to be kidding? I don't think he's ever been given the credit he deserves.
