West Coast Soulstars - Because Of You / Soul Redemption

Posted (edited)

Released on Andy Davis UK Street Soul Label on a 45 (Sept 2011). Was building a huge demand and following, but once released,(UK only), now little heard of, during October or November 2011. Has this excellent synth and strings edit, which stay's so comfortably sound wise on a 45, been a victim of it's earlier acceptance.

There is many other pocketed divisions within our musical scene that this record can be "seated" rather comfortable within.

Released on Andy Davis UK Street Soul Label on a 45 (Sept 2011). Was building a huge demand in the corrected PR area's and the dance floor as well, but once released, UK only - little heard of it out and about during October or November 2011. Has this excellent synth and strings edit, which stay's so comfortably sound wise on a 45, been a victim of it's previous acceptance by the ackonwledged.

There is many other pocketed divisions within our musical scene that this record can be "seated" rather comfortable within. So please don't lose site of it.

Hello. Also picked this up as soon as it came out and reminds me of some good danceable soulful releases back in early 90's...Driza / The Affair / Watergates etc. Personally think I prefer the previous release (Show me Love) but could be an interestin band to follow for sure.

Have heard both out only the once (empty room at the time, sadly!) & have played both out in recent months to warm some kit up here and there, but still searching for a good local(ish) night which plays bits like these and more like 'em. Any thoughts?

Just noticed they have a website and a few imminent gig dates etc:

All the best, Steve

Hi Moldie (again! lol)...Yeah I had heard that and would like to give it a go sometime, although near 200 mile round trip for me not the most attractive attribute of said night! You love driving up and down the country. I don't! :D

Sorry for the off topic / blatant plug by Moldie :thumbsup:

Nice flurry of activity on this thread hey?! Great PR for Westcoast Soulstars is the main thing.

Might just take you up on that offer Moldie, and John ain't far away either, as you know :thumbsup: ...and Simon?! :D

Actually, I think I have to thank John for reminding me about this band when he played their first release at a night a few months back. Cheers John..hope you're well. :thumbsup:

"Because of you" West Coast soulstars played this out lots at modern nights, goes down well, still not sure if it's as good as Show me love, but it is growing on me, there is some great stuff on the street soul label that Andy puts out. Monique Thomas " Daughter Shine" and C&C Factory "Share That Beat Of Love" being just two more of them in the recent past.

As the topic has moved on to the label! lol... Me too and I remember the C&C from their LP a good few years ago, so was well pleased when it finally got the 45 release. Monique Thomas sure has a lovely voice and what a great record that is hey?! More like those please, and look forward to further releases from Street Soul and others. Steve :thumbsup:

Monique Thomas at Nowt Fast pt 3 in a couple weeks Barry?!....if you're taking requests?! :yes: :D

Played it last time at NFNF but I think you had left in order to be somewhere else that night if my memory serves me right, but hey why not I'll spin it again.

Before its release on a 45 I used to play it off the Unbroken album at the modern gigs after friend of mine put me onto it.

Yes, sorry 'bout that Barry (blame Len! lolol). Your having a proper dig there hey! :D We'll sure be there until the end this time.

Doh, yet more blatant plugs for events on a thread which should be all about the Westcoast Soulstars. Sorry!

Kids will be asking in the morning why I've circled 17th December on their advent cal :thumbup:

All the best, Steve.
