Mike Terry Special

Because this interview wasn't in Bill's sweet soul vain it didn't get re-uploaded to his Science Of Soul pages until today. It was originally broadcast on Mickey's Basement Soul Sunday show as a Special. As with all of Bill interviews they got an extra boost when used as auto pilot tapes on PCRL during the DJ free hours of the day when DTI was more likely to raid the station so nobody would do live shows. Re-uploaded here for Limu in France who showed interest in the late Terry's work. Thanks Bill for your time collecting Terry's memories and reminding him what wonderful work he'd done.

Bill's Celebration Of Life

 

A great time was had at this 'sold-out' event

 

Money raised was presented to Acorns by Garry Randle

First anniversary remembrance show

Bill with the late Breda Perryman, she passed around the same time a Bill

Back to 1992

In 1992 Bill was part of my consortium of guest DJ's on the Basement Soul show, above was a night the Bill arranged for singer JJ Barnes to appear on stage, it was a great night. The short video here was Bill's guest spot on my show when he enjoyed playing the music of Detroit, a city that he was very  passionate about then. The quality of the video is not too good as it was transferred back then using Windows 95 that was a little messy at the time. I have some more footage when Bill appeared on the late Brenda Perryman TV show in Detroit, watch this space. - Mickey Nold 

 

Johnny Bristol PCRL Special

Hi all, I just converted from tape to digital a interview that I helped edit some years back for my good friend Bill Randle. He made many interviews with Motown producers over the year, we felt they were not given the airplay and respect for the work they had done over the years. Johnny was one of these such guys, and today Dawn Randle asked me for a copy of this interview for a family member of the late Johnny Bristol. I suggested uploading it to Bill's old Blog page so all could enjoy again (photo courtesy of Dawn taken at Bognor Regis). - Mickey Nold

NB - Jr Walker also appears in the interview from a recording I made with him in the 1970s.

Tribute Radio Show To Bill Randle

Recording of tribute with memories by Alex Totney & an Interview in above was done by Dan Richards in 2017.

A final farewell

Good Bye old friend

Very sad news today in that Bill took a turn for the worst over the last few days and passed away in his sleep last night. 

I'll very much miss my good friend of over 30 years. He had recently been diagnosed with a type of motor neuron disease,  that had affected his talking, breathing and eating. -  Mickey Nold

Bill's old podcasts recordings here now go back as far as 10-3-2020 . Interviews are here:-  interviews
