On The Scene With Guy Stevens / Various- On The Scene With Guy Stevens / Various (Uk)
- Authentic R&B anthems from the UK's hottest 60s maverick DJ Guy Stevens on 140-gram black vinyl LP- Club classics from the epicentre of the UK rhythm & blues revolution - The Scene Club- Inner printed sleeve featuring insightful liner notes by Record Mirror journalist Norman Jopling.During the early 60s, the insatiable appetite in Britain for American rhythm & blues music among a growing coterie of young musicians, modernists and other such hip kids was mostly being ignored by the major record companies.Enter Guy Stevens, whose crusade to popularise rhythm & blues would shortly encompass not only his stint as DJ at London's hottest R&B-oriented club, but his pioneering work as consultant to major UK record labels (resulting in big-selling hits), his own record import business, and, icing on the cake, his own record imprint - the legendary Sue label. Those several facets of Guy's career have inspired the contents of this album - a collection of wondrous black music with a decade- spanning vitality that still excites, is still rivetingly authentic, still heartfelt. Some are now well-known, others so obscure that this is their first-ever reissue on any format - but at the time that Guy introduced them to his audience, all were a revelation.
