It was announced this week that Lenny Williams will be top of the bill for the next soul weekender at the Blackpool Hilton from 6th to 8th January 2006. A great way to kick off another soul year and if it is half as good as last year with Phil Perry, Glenn Jones and Howard Hewett then we are in for a treat.
Just dug out Lenny's driving soul classic on Fantasy to get in the mood though I doubt he will sing this one! Love the nagging guitar on this one which propels this former UK dance floor favourite along at a great pace!
There is a good bio on the Fantasy site:

A note for blues fans: the gospel tinged flip side, "Lisa' Gone", has Mike Bloomfield on guitar and Mark Naftalin on piano.
