Really sorry to hear Mick's story, it made me realise how lucky I am, not as old as Roburt, but not far off & old age has resulted only in knee problems so far. Powerful vid that was posted about Henry in the nursing home! Wonder how many of us would respond in the same way in a nursing home, listening to Art Freeman et al.
Track that takes me back is hearing Contours - Misunderstanding for the first time, we'd just arrived on our initial visit to the Down Broadway club in Sheffield which filled the floor, probably in 68. From then on it had me hooked. Moved to Leics. in 79 & lost touch with the music until Rudzie who ran Boogaloo records shop persuaded me back to the various clubs he was involved with in Leics. in the late 80's /90's. Don't get to many events now, although I'm still collecting and there are plenty on local do's, I must make the effort to get out more!
