To quote the blurb

"Clive was an early member of Dave Godin's Tamla Motown Appreciation Society, founder of the Don Covay fan club and editor of pioneering soul music fanzine 'Shout'.
Clive traces the story of the emergence and rise of what pirate radio DJ Mike Raven called 'our kind of music', initially from a fan's perspective, and more recently from involvement as a presenter on Solar Radio and Label Manager of the acclaimed soul CD re-issue label "Shout" Records"

He may also have been to one or two Charlton games and even be a CL member ; - )
