Dave Clegg Funeral Fund Raiser

Dave Clegg Funeral Fund Raiser magazine cover

Hi Soul people

Most of you know our good friend Dave Clegg past away last week, his wife Cheryl has gave me permission to do a fund raiser for Dave's funeral, as they both fell on hard times in last couple of years

You can donate through https://www.gofundme.com/dave-cleggs-funeral-costs

Also if any soul promoters have a gig on this or next week a bucket on your admission table would also be appreciated

Those who did not know Dave Clegg he contributed so much to the soul scene became good friends with the likes of Sid Barnes , Syl Johnson etc

Over 50 years of this soul legend  gave us, smiles, stories, laughs, we will miss him dearly

Yes, nice and true words Mick, this music was his passion, even though he slowed down on going out, health reasons, he kept up with what was going on. His knowledge was quite unreal at times as was his love for the music. He made a point of being friends with the creators of the music we love such as Fab Glanton and Rose Battiste and some would stop over at his place in helping promotors to put them on the UK stage. He gave a lot to the scene in so many ways, the scene should in these circumstances think on, please give something, please.  Gilly

I never knew Dave but Gilly’s message struck a chord with me.

Small donation made.

I didn’t know Dave, but donated.

The worry and heartache Dave’s wife must be going through wondering how she will bury her husband is hard to imagine.
