Welcome

Artists

John Du Cann

John's biggest moment singleswise was the hit "Don't Be A Dummy", which was originally recorded for a Lee Cooper advert.  He had previously played guitar with Thin Lizzy and Atomic Rooster.  The single is taken from his album "The World's Not Big Enough".

Carmen

 

Formed in 1973 in the USA, this 5 piece band skillfully melded a range of musical influences, most notably rock with (as might be surmised from their name) flamenco roots.  They made three highly regarded albums, "Fandangos in Space", "Dancing On A Cold Wind" and "The Gypsies", all of which are available for licensing.

Michael Nesmith

Michael Nesmith, famously ex Monkee, recorded a number of solo albums ranging across a range of styles, covering country rock, country, rock, soft rock, brass band(!) and all points in between.

Springwater

The brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Phil Cordell, Springwater are fondly remembered for their UK and German top five hit 'I Will Return' from 1971, with its catchy mixture of fuzz and slide guitar.

Country Soul Revue

Produced by Dan Penn, this album combines the best of Southern US old style country musicians and mixes in a whole lot of soul. 

Five star Observer review -

"Pick of the bunch may be 'I'm Only Human', featuring a devastating performance from George Soulé, but Larry Jon's 'Sapelo' runs it close: the song involves an invitingly mysterious exposition of a slice of Southern history, so it's also bracing to discover that it's newly written. But then, of course, these guys are masters of their craft and probably write songs as easily as others shuck peanuts.

The Turtles

 

 

 

 

 

The Turtles were an American pop and folk rock band, producing many radio-friendly chart singles but remain best known for 1967's 'Happy Together' and 'Elenore' the following year.  They made some excellent albums, and all their material is available for licence.

Johnny Warman

Best known for his 1981 hit "Screaming Jets" featuring Peter Gabriel on backing vocals, the single had great success throughout Europe and in Australia.  Three of Johnny's albums ("Hour Glass", "Walking Into Mirrors" (which includes "Screaming Jets") and "From The Jungle To The New Horizons") are available for licence.

Andromeda

"Andromeda's sole album [from 1969] was heavy guitar psychedelia that leaned far more toward the lurking hard rock, progressive, and occasionally metal movements than it did toward more pop- and song-oriented psych."

Tom Middleton

Having worked with Richard James (aka Aphex Twin), Tom (a classically-trained pianist and cellist) has gone on to become an acclaimed ambient artist in his own right.  In addition, he is a prolific remixer, having worked on a diverse range of material from the likes of Coldplay, Prince, Kylie Minogue, Leftfield, Goldfrapp and Pulp.

His "Lifetracks" album, released in 2007, is a collection of personal soundtracks that he compiled over a period of 9 years, drawing inspiration from history, people, places and experiences.

The Kingsmen

Most famous for their US #2 classic "Louie Louie", the Kingsmen hailed from Oregon and secured their moment in pop history with their definitive recording of the Richard Berry song.  Rolling Stone magazine voted is as “The #4 most influential recording of all time” in 2007, and it is universally acknowledged as a classic party anthem.
