The Brothers of Soul at Tera Shirma

[MIKEW-UK]

The Brothers of Soul are coming to the UK and there is a great article on them by Rob Ross from Soul-Source.co.uk. There is a picture of Fred Bridges with Ed Wolfrum mixing at Tera Shirma!

Mike,
the mixing pic isn't Tera Shirma. Looks like United Sound to me, which is where Wolfy worked.

Thanks for the correction Ralph...... I've restated...

No problem, Mike. Fred Bridges did do extensive work at Tera Shirma, but not in this case.

[MIKEW-UK]

Ralph, could you in your wildest dreams ever have imagined Fred and his group coming to perform in the UK for the first time some 40 plus years on?

[ralpht]

I suppose not, Mike. I can tell you that Fred is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. If you get a chance to speak with him, please give him my best regards.

Hi Mike.

I think the guy who is bringing them over & who wrote the article is Rob Moss!

Morph

[MIKEW-UK]

Hi Morph, that is correct. Please refer to the first post I made; I state it is indeed Rob Moss. I always ensure that the full credits and attributions are fully and clearly stated so there cannot be any confusion. And of course clicking on the link takes you to the original article; I don't cut and paste so the provenance of the website and the writer is always clear.

I do post items of this kind in the hope that it will help the artists / promoters / journalists get greater coverage. I have been sorely disappointed to miss many shows because I was unaware they were happening until after the event, and I hope coverage increases attendance and therefore returns for the artists / promoters.

cheers Mike

Thanks for this post. I like the Brothers of Soul very much and it's good oo know that they are still around. In my estimation, they should have had more than one hit record.

Hi Mike.

I fancy going to this night, but was talking to some people over the weekend who said they thought it had been cancelled, so do you know if it is definitely on?

Rob sent me an EMail last week so I presume it is still on.

He can be contacted via Hayley records....... http://www.hayleyrecords.co.uk/

[motownmorph1]

Is this night next week still on does anyone know, had no response from the web site & I cant see it mentioned on any other soul forum

morph

[MIKEW-UK]

Just had an email response from Rob at hayley records confirming the concert is on as planned.

[MIKEW-UK]

Rob, the promoter confirms that the concert is DEFINITELY ON! The guys are flying in on Thursday and they'll be rehearsing Friday. Show on Saturday.

What's up Chalky? Fred is definitely going to be there, and he's pumped for the show - I was trying to make some [[not so subtle) hints that they might need a hand percussionist, I'm excited for FLB just thinking about it!
