Quite an interesting claim that Kev makes on his Myspace page:

https://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...iendid=86441985

"Created the music for the popular KFC TV Ads"

I honestly thought it was the original artists and musicians who created the music. Never realised that Kev was that talented. All credit to him :thumbsup:

:D

Never mind that Dave, it says he's got 25 friends :shades:

I always knew the man was delusional but claiming to have 25 friends is going a little tooooo far. They're probably not real friends but boots he bought off ebay :yes: Someone ought to warn him that he has been ripped off :thumbsup:

PS has anyone got the name of a good solicitor I feel I may need one :D

Great stuff :shades:

Even better if you follow his link to his own site

https://www.kevroberts.com/

Nice pic of him looking like a 'Harry Enfield Scouser'.... :D

And just when I thought he was warming to me his last comment on the page pretty much sums me up......(and 90% of regular Soul Source posters)

'People Dislikes: Professional mischief makers who are talent-less and create little.'

Outrageously untrue claims of this nature dont really help Kevs case do they.............quite sad really, does he really beleive this stuff do you think ???.

Re-Kick started the Rare Soul collectors market by selling the world's rarest Soul 45, Frank Wilson's - Do I Love You (see below) for £5,000 (1990!)

Why even try to get away with it...........

Priceless reply...lol Eggs you can boil them, poach them, fry them, make cakes with them and bugger me enjoy them coz they taste good, a simple food but always remember to cook well otherwise if a little off they can cause regular visits to the smallest room in the house....cooked well they can be perfection, soft in the middle but remember to remove the shell....lol

Also keep all your eggs in the same basket.........and never yolk sorry only yolking!!!

3 He once produced a re-recorded hit for Andy Stewart 'Donald Where's Ya Troosers'!

8 Surprisingly knows as much about Pop music as Soul.

Brilliant Kev :shades:

Funniest thing i've read for ages.

He apparently likes Soccer also...

Little known fact.... new music was recorded for follow up ads for K.F.C.

And guess what? Kev Roberts was involved.

Doubtless that was kept quiet while the "recently found copies" were sold off...what a wonderful career, making jingles for Kentucky Fried Rat Fat.

Bit of a difference between David Bowie & Andy Stewart though.

I'll say one thing about Andy Sewart though - on that record "Donald Where's yer Troosers", half way through there's an Elvis Presley impersonation and it's far and away the best I've ever heard, if that was Andy Stewart he could have made a living from doing Elvis's voice.

So the ads that Kev created the music for didn't actually get shown, so your prevvious comment was totally misleading. That's probably why it's a little known fact.

Here's another little known fact for you then. I redesigned Buckingham Palace, but the Queen didn't like my design (Wasn't keen on flock wallpaper, Duke Of Edinburgh said it reminded him "Of a bloody Indian Restaurant"). So it wasn't used. Consequently I don't credited myself as 'Designer of Buckingham Palace' because I DIDN'T DO IT !

Shame that, would've more than covered your recent taxi fare if they'd had liked it......... :shades:

By the ommission of the fact that they weren't shown. Therefore they couldn't have been 'popular'

I've no problem with what Smithy says, that's accurate, but to claim he created the music is just downright rubbish. he didn't create the music at all.

Here's the part it's in

Kev Roberts's BlurbsAbout me:

In the Entertainment industry-34 years. I became a DJ working at the famous Wigan Casino. Later producing a string of well known Soul artists such as EDWIN STARR, LINDA LEWIS, JUNIOR WALKER, MAI-TAI etc. Spent many years in Radio and currently CEO of VIP Radio(Sky Channel 0196) www.vipradio.net I wrote the book 'Northern Soul Top 500' and promote events all over the UK and USA. Created the music for the popular KFC TV Ads. TV Appearances on ITV, CH4 , CH5, and SKY. You can find out more at www.goldsoul.co.uk to find classic soul music and my own pages at www.kevroberts.com

Hi Rob .... again .

You are correct about the episode about KR playing of Andy Stewart's " Donald Where's My Trousers ( pronounced " Troosers " ) .

I remember the episode very well ; as a result of the record being recognised as a good time party record , it was picked up on and subsequently played in other areas , then nationally . The popularity - and respective scarcity - of the disc resulted in it being released again ( the first time since it's original release on Top Rank in the 1950s ) , and as a result , it got into the top ten on the strength of respective sales .

Another side that Kev played , was Tina Charles' " I Love To Love ( But My Baby Just Loves To Dance ) " remixed by him under the alias of " Chuck The DJ " .....

Hi Rob ....

Bouncer at the Windmill ..... nay lad ; that was Bill Payne's job . I just stood there and drank .

As for being Sean's bodyguard ...... did he ever have a body to guard ? :shades:

Photographs ..... yes . I have one of me , Sean , Bill and Andy Newbold at The Windmill in 1980 . The startling resemblence I have to Borat is truly sad .

If you send me your e-mail address ( burtonmalc@yahoo.co.uk ) I will send it as an attachment to you .

It is ideal to put on the mantlpiece as a help to keep the kids away from the fire .
