Sunday 29th 2nd US Soul Trip Sports Edition Bar East Brunswick Hilton

Ali & John Nightingale in the Sports Edition Bar East Brunswick Hilton April 2006
I have plenty of fond memories of the 2nd Soul Trip. The first I am sharing is the music after the Record Fair on the Sunday. I had been out for a meal in East Brunswick with my wife Barbara to chill out after searching through 1000's of 45's before going down to the bar to catch a set by my 2 friends Ali and John Nightingale. It was a perfect set to chill to and I stood their mesmerised by the fine music which I have detailed below.

This is just a flavour of the week where music brings people together. Meeting up with Ali and John was a joy as we shared in the music.
