This is the absolute premiere of a brand new song from our brand new album, "Northern Soul 2009". Along with the DVD, there are twenty eight stunning floorfillers on our latest and most difficult album we have ever completed. Having already released "Northern Soul 2007" and "Northern Soul 2008" on Centre City Records over the last two years, I began to record the songs for "Northern Soul 2009" in February of 2009, with my long time producing partner Clive Scott, until that awful unspeakable day of May 10th, when Clive passed away, just two weeks after suffering a terrible accident, caused by falling off a ladder, and left us all devastated. Fifteen of the songs were finished. Clive and I had started the music for six more, and now, in honour of his memory, I have compiled a further seven songs which Clive and I had written for various projects but had never been released. It seemed only right that Clive's last ever project, "Northern Soul 2009", should contain all songs that he had written with me, so with a heavy heart, we have set about the task of completing this monumentally important project to keep his skill and talent alive forever. The awesome Mr Angelo Starr, brother to the late Motown legend Edwin Starr, has sung some of the finest cuts of Centre City's previous releases, including the stomping "Stand On My Own Two Feet" which was a 7" single and the opening track on "Northern Soul 2007" . Angelo is currently touring with Lemar, and prior to that worked with Alexander O'Neal, as well as touring with Edwin's backing band, The Team. Here, Angelo Starr sings "Back In The Middle Of A Broken Heart". This song was originally one that Clive and I wrote for Steve Brookstein in 2005 for his album on Sony. However, as it was then decided by Simon Cowell that the whole album was to be only covers there were no new songs used at all. And therefore, after Clive's untimely death, this is the third great and unused song co-written with Steve Brookstein to be recorded all over again brand new for this album. So after seven long months work, the album is finally released on September 21st 2009. And, as with "Soul Steppers" earlier this year, our new albums are being distributed by Wienerworld, who have put out all our Northern Soul DVDs, and this time we look certain to get it sold in all the remaining major record shops around the country. A bittersweet loving tribute to the much missed Clive Scott.
