It was the first of this year's "fabulous at 50" birthdays yesterday [I only use that phrase because it will be my turn in August - gulp!]: Miss Caron Wheeler, the silky-smooth-voiced lead singer of one of the essential parts of any 80s record collection, Soul II Soul.
It's almost a double celebration as this time next week Miss Wheeler's Soul II Soul-mate (geddit?) Jazzie B also reaches his half century...
Time methinks for a timeslip moment, as we hurtle back twenty-four years for this all-time classic - Keep On Movin':
Ah, memories...
Caron Wheeler is reportedly back in the recording studio with Jazzie B recording tracks for a new Soul II Soul album.

Saw them performing the always fabulous "Back To Life" on Jools recently. Still sounded great. Happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteSome music is timeless. I missed them on Jools Holland (and live in Islington), but hope the new album will be worth the wait... Jx
