It's Ok everyone ,there's no need to panic ,sound the alarm and call for a search party coz I'm here again ,almost as good as new ........I heard you missed me ,well I'm back !
The NHS is a venerable institution and I had reason to be doubly grateful to them yesterday ...first of all they confirmed I've completely ruptured my cruciate ligament and medial meniscus in my right knee but secondly ,and far more importantly,when my son Callum was badly cut in the mouth by a stray elbow playing football yesterday after initially being told he could need plastic surgery to avoid scarring eventually he was neatly stitched by a great Doctor in St.George's Hospital Tooting . He has inherited his good looks from me so it was vital they weren't damaged ! !
Right..... Music For The Soul is the title of this blog NOT Emergency Ward 10 so lets get down to business please,quiet in the cheap seats and stop picking your nose,it's disgusting !
2 days ago I launched a scathing attack on major label " A& R " and got a terrific response ,especially about our mate JK ( you must check the album sleeve ) and today's featured artist is a young lady who was fortunate enough to escape major-label Hell after releasing just one single ......a great new Soul singer called Zarif whose debut album " Box Of Secrets " was recently released on Bright Pink records.
She was originally signed to RCA - whose track record is frankly appalling - but after being given just one chance to impress she was promptly dropped (just like an artist I managed who signed to Mercury a year ago ,recorded an album ,released one single and was dropped at an estimated cost of £ 600,000.00 ! ! How can you run a business like that ? ? ? )
Anyway back to Zarif ....the album is a collection of vibrant modern Soul/Pop songs that are radio-friendly and fun.I'm told she is great live so I'm looking forward to seeing her....youtube " Box Of Secrets "to hear what I mean .
This blog is about music with Soul ,it's not an obscure anorak-driven blog about records you've never heard and can't buy,that's why I'm open-minded and believe that young exciting artist like Zarif are worthy of inclusion.......
