Marking the passing of the legendary #ZootMoney by revisiting an old interview I did with the great man on Monday night’s radio show. It covers The Big Roll Band, the UK R&B/Soul scene, Dantalian’s Chariot and Jimi Hendrix’s very first day in England. Some man Zoot! Pass it on!

So that’s good old Kenny Cope gone at 93. #RandallAndHopkirkDeceased was a beautifully odd and effortlessly stylish slice of TV & the genuine love between #KennethCope #MikePratt & Annette Andre as the sleuths undivided by death was an integral part of its magic. RIP Ken

I see Great!TV are showing an episode of #RandallAndHopkirkDeceased at 10pm. A chance to hear Marty say “Jeff! Jeff! Quick! They’ve got Jeannie!” one more time. A fitting tribute to the lovely #KennethCope

Remembering #ZootMoney (that’s him far right with future Police guitarist Andy Summers outside the legendary Flamingo club in London) on the radio show tonight with a vintage interview I did many moons back tracing his entire career in music. Some man old Zoot!

Opening the radio show with this gem tonight ..picked up on 7inch earlier this week. Why #TheAction weren’t massive is beyond me. Great songs, incredible musicians, unique singer (the late Reg King) and they were produced by #GeorgeMartin no less. So much soul. THE ACTION
