Andy Rix Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Apologies if this has already been reported ..... I don't recall seeing it Herb Ward died on 24 December 2012 I'm sure we'll all agree he sang some fantastic songs Andy 2
Mrtag Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) R.I.P. Herb. some fantastic tunes indeed Andy will be another great artist sadly missed. Edited January 27, 2013 by mrtag
Soulman Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) ..... and he was a thoroughly nice guy too. When I spoke to him for Manifesto he cared about two things only. His mother who he was caring for and his life as a trucker. He had no interest in his singing career no matter how good we on the soul scene think his records are. RIP Herb Steve Edited January 27, 2013 by soulman 2
Guest Dave Turner Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Sorry to hear he's gone. Honest To Goodness always was a fave, right up in yer face Northern
macca Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 100% agree with Dave on HTG. It was one of those sounds I'd make a B-line for the dancefloor for. Strange Change had a massive impact on me when I first heard it around 1977-8. There's been so very few of those down years... RIP Herb.
Tony Foster Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Another great artist gone to Soul heaven, R.I.P.

Wiganer1 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Didn't know he was still alive. Honest to goodness is always in my playbox . Rip herby
macca Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Ian Levine's team filmed him for The Strange World of Northern Soul and Strange Change from those sessions is on Youtube.
