Change are celebrating the release of their classic album ‘Change of Heart’ with a 40th Anniversary Tour. 4 dates at London’s Jazz Cafe are now sold out 6 months in advance and due to demand the band have added a South London show at Fairfield Hall on Friday 20th December where special guests will be London’s very own Loose Ends!.
In the 80’s Fairfield Hall was THE venue for all the Soul shows that came to the UK. Now over the past 18 months promoters TOSB working with the venue are putting the theatre back on the ‘Soul’ map with sold out shows with Shalamar, Shakatak, Alexander O’Neal & Jaki Graham – all 80’s soul icons. Now its Change and Loose Ends for Xmas!.
Biography - European-American collaborations were not uncommon during the disco and post-disco eras. Change are among the most noteworthy international acts to spring up during the early ’80s. The group released 11 other charting singles, as well as six charting albums, two of which peaked in the Top Ten of Billboard’s RnB Albums chart.
Change of Heart is the fifth studio album by the band Change. It was released in April 1984 and reached the Top 40 Album chart in the UK.
Some 40 years on the band return to the UK to celebrate its release in front of a ‘Class reunion of all the suburban Soul Boys and Girls from this glorious mid 80’s era
With the influence of magic producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis ( also heavily involved with the likes of the SOS Band at the time )the album was a dancefloor classic in the more upfront UK Soul Clubs and tracks such as ‘Change of Heart , You are My Melody were instant classics along with 2 more tracks from the album "It Burns Me Up"and "Say You Love Me Again".
Very special guests for this show will be Londons very own Loose Ends – another band held dear in the hearts of the South London Soul crowd. With massive hits such as Hangin on A String / Gonna Make You Mine / Slowdown / Don’t be a Fool then this unique double bill is a must see Xmas show for all 80’s Soul music fans!
