I am pleased to announce the second release from Big Man Records, due out late summer, a wonderful double header from The Commands - 'A Way To Love You' B/W 'I've Got Love For My Baby' BMR 1002 following on from BMR 1001 from Bull & The Matadors- 'A Part Of My Life'B/W 'MY Babe' which was very well received and pretty much sold out. The Commands tracks have been licenced from the NUMERO GROUP (USA) and are taken from Dynamic master tapes the San Antonio, Texas based label owned by Abe Epstein which produced some prime Texas Soul served rare in some instances. 'A Way To Love You' was also recorded by The Volumes on Inferno and featured on The Shades Of Blue Impact album, this Duke Browner song is knocked out the ball park by The Commands who glide through the song with beautiful harmonies at a pace taylor made for the dance floor, first time UK 45 release which is a fabulous version and very hard to find on the original Dynamic release, the flip was released on Dynamic Records also 'I've Got Love For My Baby' is possibly the hardest Dynamic release to find by the group on the original 45, a beautiful song that instantly pulls at the heartstrings. The label has been designed to the Dynamic label specs with the label name changed. NOW TAKING PRE ORDERS - THE RECORD IS DUE FOR RELEASE LATE SUMMER, PAY PAL AS FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO AVOID FEES, INCLUDE ADDRESS WITH ORDER PLEASE, PAY PAL bicknellmark@aol.com AS FAMILY AND FRIENDS £23.00 UK AND £28.00 REST OF THE WORLD IF NOT ABLE TO SEND AS FAMILY AND FRIENDS £24.00 UK AND £29.00 REST OF THE WORLD.

I wanted to write something yesterday but was unable to find the words I still can't , Chico was a true friend and a gentleman, when I moved up to North Wales in the late 80's as soon as we met we warmed to each other and a friendship was formed over our mutual passion and love for all things Soulful, I found out about this tragic news yesterday lunch time and broke down, I've not spoken to him or seen him in a while but we alway's had a catch up over the years talking often about records and putting the world to rights, we ran gigs together when I lived there and helped kick start the North Wales scene again, spent many happy hours in my flat with him again alway's records were our common ground and passion, he was one of the kindest most genuine man I have ever met, we share the same birthday and I had a joint party with him when I turned 40 which was a memorable day. To quote Darrow Fletcher here "The Pain Just Gets A Little Deeper" which sums up how I and many people are feeling right now who had the pleasure of knowing him, my thoughts are with his dear wife Pat and their two lads at this horrible time, he was a hell of a pool player, fine DJ with a deep passion, love and understanding of what he truly loved Soul music, the Soul scene has lost a top man who had time for everyone, so sad.
