Such sad news today… the lovely Steve Ellis from the band Love Affair has passed away. Had pleasure of meeting him a few times. This photo was at our first meeting back in June 2022 with Mike Read when he helped us celebrate the 100th TV show on Heritage Chart Radio in Brighton.

Steve Ellis still had that incredible power in his singing but of late he found it incredibly taxing to belt out those songs like he used to. He will be missed on the 60s package tour as he was one of the few originals left. But what a voice he had. RIP

Keep seeing live music events I want to attend but the venue isn't accessible. As I'm a music journalist who would like to review these events for @blitzed80smag1 my not being able to attend hurts the bands as much as myself. Still promoters book them. So the circle turns.

All through music history, musicians and singers have been ripped off by the very people they thought would look after them. Les and all the band were ripped off.
The Bay City Rollers sold 120 million records. Their singer got less than £30,000. Decades later, he asked their manager where the money went. The manager asked him the same thing. In the video below, Les McKeown says it to Tam Paton's face: "You were our manager. Where is our money?" In the 1970s the Rollers were five Scottish lads in tartan and one of the biggest bands in the world. Les says Paton had him sign his first contract at 18, in the back of his car. On camera, Paton agrees it gave him power of attorney. "I never ever used your power of attorney," he says. The band sued their accountants. They ran out of money to pay their own lawyers and settled. Less than £30,000 each, the documentary said. Les brings a US tax return with royalty figures. Paton says he had nothing to do with it. "There's not any evidence to this," he tells Les. "You talked about something nearly 20, 30 years ago." Then the question comes back across the table: "So where is that money then?" "Sorry," Les says. "I came here to ask you where the money was." By the time of the film, Les lived in a small flat in East London. Paton had made his fortune in property and lived behind spiked gates outside Edinburgh. Did Paton lose the Rollers' money, or was he the reason it was gone? Every day here: a famous fortune, and the people closest to the star who took it.
