These updates represent main changes at the site. If it appears that there have been none on any particular day, that may not be the truth. Many Soul artists have been in touch regarding information here, consequently, the information is being 'tightened up' all the time. My apologies if I don't add these updates to this web page. Being a 'one man band', adding some of this new information does slip my mind from time to time. Going senile in my old age!!
