Soul music is my first love. Be it new or old, vinyl or mp3. It's all about the music.

Got into soul back in the 80's, 1984 was the year I started buying records (rather than just taping off the radio!), and I picked up 'Ain't Nobody' by Rufus & Chaka Khan, 'Somebody Else's Guy' from Jocelyn Brown, and Change's 'Change of Heart' amongst a whole host of others.

Listening to Tony Blackburn on Radio London led to Luther, Anita Baker and Maze, and eventually to the likes of Robbie Vincent, Andy Peebles, et al  Robbie in particular must be responsible for half my record collection.  From here I discovered the likes of By All Means, started searching out import US 12" singles at hidden away record outlets (I remember a couple of basements in Croydon - that hive of soul!), and started going to acts live.

I did some mobile DJ stuff, had a couple of turntables and a mixer in the bedroom, and had a stint doing some hospital radio.

All that got put on hold for a few years before I met Les Adams, 'the mix-doctor'!, and he encouraged and helped me to put a demo together for Solar Radio, and hey, presto!
