Storm Thorgerson
dies aged 69…
Storm Thorgerson, best known for the design of
iconic Pink Floyd albums including "Dark Side of the Moon" and
"Wish You Were Here," died today after a lengthy illness, the band
has announced. He was 69. He became key member of the graphic art group Hipgnosis,
and designed many of their most famous single and album covers. Hipgnosis
were responsible for several of the album covers for 10cc and Godley & Creme.
Thorgerson’s last 10cc work was for the recent box set Tenology. His family
released a statement saying, "He had been ill for some time with cancer,
though he had made a remarkable recovery from his stroke in 2003. |

Graham Gouldman
posted this on Facebook today…
“I'm sorry to report that due to a serious hand
and arm injury sustained while on a skiing trip in Japan my dear friend and
10cc cohort Rick Fenn will be unable to undertake our Scandinavian tour that
was due to start on February 19th. As a result of this we have been forced to
postpone the tour. I'm hoping that all the dates can be
repositioned or replaced at a later date. My sincerest apologies to all our Scandinavian
fans and friends, and of course the promoters and venues.” The gigs have been removed from our Dates page
and Graham’s 10ccworld.com website has them removed too. First playable date
looks to be April 11th. We’ll keep you informed. |

Kevin Godley To
Perform With 10cc At Royal Albert Hall Show To Mark The Band’s 40th
Anniversary Kevin
Godley, a founder member of 10cc, will join the current line-up at 10cc’s
landmark 40th anniversary show at the Royal Albert Hall on 10th May. The
2012 line-up of 10cc features fellow original member Graham Gouldman with
Paul Burgess, Rick Fenn, Mick Wilson and Mike Stevens. Says
Graham: “Kevin and I have stayed in touch over the years and we wrote and
recorded some songs together a few years ago for the first time since those
halcyon days back in Stockport, so it was natural to ask him to come and sing
a few songs with us at the Albert Hall. To my mind Kevin was always the great
unsung vocalist of the band. It should
be an emotional night.” Says
Kevin: “Looking forward to jumping in the time machine and going back… or is
it forward? Actually it’s both. 10cc was a peculiar chemical reaction, a
joining of unlikely dots and an equation that didn’t make sense. Good job I
was more into making noise than sense. Time to make less sense all over
again. Now what should I wear..?” Pic
of Kevin and Graham is available here: http://www.cloudpr.co.uk/assets/KevinGodleyGrahamGouldman.jpg 10cc
- Graham Gouldman, Eric Stewart, Kevin Godley and Lol Crème – was formed in
Strawberry Studios in Stockport in 1972.
From their debut single “Donna” in ’72 to their final No 1 “Dreadlock
Holiday” in ’78 via solid gold classics such as “I’m Not In Love”, “Rubber
Bullets”, “The Wall Street Shuffle”, “I’m Mandy Fly Me”, “Life Is A
Minestrone”, “The Things We Do For Love”, “The Dean And I”, “Art For Art’s
Sake”, “Silly Love” and many more, 10cc ruled the airwaves in the 70s. The
original line-up of 10cc stayed together from 72 to 76 and released four albums
“10cc” (’73), “Sheet Music” (’74), “The Original Soundtrack” (’75) and “How
Dare You” (’76) after which Godley and Crème departed to pursue their own
path as a duo. Gouldman
and Stewart continued and 10cc released “Deceptive Bends” (’77), “Bloody Tourists”
(’78), “Look Hear” (’80), “Ten Out Of 10” (’81) and “Windows In The Jungle”
(’83) then both pursued other projects before reconvening in the 90s for
“Meanwhile” (’92) and “Mirror Mirror” (’95). At
the turn of the millennium encouraged by fans and friends Graham Gouldman put
together a band and went out and played all those 10cc hits that everyone
wanted to hear. 10cc (Mk III) has
toured the world and, as well as delighting their fans of old, have found
there is a whole new generation discovering the band for the first time. |

here http://snd.sc/wMEzNy for the mp3 PRODUCERS
UNDERTAKE UNIVERSITY TOUR AND RELEASE ALBUM There
are supergroups, and then there are Producers, arguably the most successful
line up of musicians and producers ever. Together,
the four members of this exciting new collective of extraordinarily highly regarded
producers and artists have, over the past
40 years, scored over 200 hit singles and albums. But instead of resting on their mightily
impressive laurels, they are about to embark
on a new adventure, with a series of live performances and interactive
sessions at several British universities and colleges in March
2012, ahead of the release of a debut album, Made In Basing Street, in May
2012. So
who are Producers? Step
forward Lol Crème, ex-member of brilliant 70s pop group 10cc and one half of hit-makers
and production/video duo Godley & Creme, legendary British producer
Trevor Horn, award-winning musician, engineer and producer Stephen Lipson and
ubiquitous human drum machine Ash Soan. This
eclectic gang of musicians and studio aces are going to undertake something
unique: a tour of Britain’s universities and colleges,
during which they will engage with music students around the UK – in London,
Southampton , Birmingham, Leeds, Guildford and High Wycombe – ahead of the
release of their long-awaited debut album Made In Basing Street. Far
from your regular rock shows, these multi-media events will see the group
spending time with the students in Q&A sessions before taking
to the stage to showcase their album and, of course, some of their Greatest
Hits. All of the shows will be produced and promoted in association with the
students at each institution. Producers’ YouTube channel will host news from
the tour and footage of Q+A sessions with the students. Speaking
about the tour, Ash Soan says, “I'm looking forward to the Uni gigs
personally because I remember when I was studying music and the likes of
George Martin visited, it really stayed with me. I hope our shows can do the
same”. More

Andrew Gold Dies From Heart Attack
At 59
Singer / songwriter Andrew Gold has
died at the age of 59 from a heart attack. Gold was best known for his 1977 hit
‘Lonely Boy’ and 1978’s ‘Thank You For Being A Friend’, the later became the
theme for the hit TV series The Golden Girls that ran from 1985-1992. Gold continued in TV writing the
theme song for ‘Mad About You’ known as ‘Final Frontier’. Andrew Gold was born in Burbank. His
mother Marni Nixon was the singing voice for many Hollywood actresses. She
was the real singer for Natalie Wood in ‘West Side Story’, Deborah Karr in
‘The King And I’ and Audrey Hepburn in ‘My Fair Lady’. His father Ernest Gold
was an Academy Award winning composer. He wrote the music for ‘Exodus’. Gold’s first band Bryndie featured Kenny
Edwards, Wendy Waldman and Karla Bonoff. He worked closely with Linda
Ronstadt as multi-instrumentalist on five of her albums from 1974’s ‘Heart
Like A Wheel’ and onwards. His big hit ‘Lonely Boy’ was
featured in the movies ‘Boogie Nights’ and ‘The Waterboy’. Andrew Gold worked with Art
Garfunkel on the ‘Breakaway’ album. He played every instrument on Art’s solo
hit ‘I Only Have Eyes For You’. He also played guitar and drums on Eric
Carmen’s ‘She Did It’. Andrew has sung on records or played
live with three of the four Beatles, Paul McCartney, John Lennon and Ringo
Starr and has toured with the Eagles and Jackson Browne. A big 10CC fan, after the band broke
up in the 80’s Gold formed Wax with Graham Gouldman. They were together for 5
years and delivered the hits ‘Right Between Your Eyes’ and ‘Bridge To Your
Heart’. Roy, Dave and Val send our sincerest
condolences and heartfelt wishes to his family and friends on behalf of all
10cc, Wax and Andrew Gold fans everywhere. |

Taking a break from touring… Having
completed the UK and European tours for early 2011, Graham is making an
appearance on a television food chat show… Chat Masala, on May 8th.
Seabright
Productions are proud to present Chat
Masala, at E4 Udderbelly this Summer; a chat show with culinary leanings,
from Hardeep Singh Kohli - a man of many words and even more ingredients. If
music be the food of love play on, play on. Obviously had TV been invented in
Shakespeare's day he would probably have said "if chat show formats be
the food of love, eat on and chat on as well". Probably. During
these two unmissable shows, not only will audiences hear from some of the
biggest names of Stage, TV and the world of Cookery but the big names will be
fed as well. Lamb Curry, Butter Chicken, Aloo Gobi and Spam Pakora are just
some of the delicacies Hardeep will cook while interviewing. Food
and fun and famous folk – what more could you want on a Summer’s afternoon? May 8th - The
Foodie Show Bryn Williams - A familiar face
from Saturday Kitchen, Bryn shot to fame when he won The Great British Menu to cook the fish course for the Queen
Mother's 80th birthday. Having worked for Marco Pierre White and Michael
Roux, Bryn is now owner and chef of Odettes
in Primrose Hill. Russell Norman - As Operations
Director of Caprice Holdings, he
was responsible for launching the new oyster bar at Sheekey’s and planning the
company’s other openings in Dubai and New York. He gave all that up to open
his own restaurants, Polpo, Polpetto
and now Spuntino which have quickly
become Soho staples. Graham Gouldman (10CC)
- Songwriter, musician and founder member of 10CC. He has written hit songs for The Yardbirds and The
Hollies in the 60's and is in the middle of an extensive 10CC tour. |

Mick Wilson – So The Story Goes We spoke with Mick
Wilson yesterday about his new album and he filled in a few blanks for us… Well, what started out a couple of years ago with Graham and myself just sitting down with two acoustics has finally ended up with an album that I’m really proud of. Initially, I just wanted to get Graham involved to give my songs a “once-over” and get some songwriting advice. We then wrote a couple of tunes from scratch that we were happy with and got some good reaction from people we trust. That snowballed into people asking if I was going to make a whole album of my material, who would be involved and would I be playing it live etc. So we decided to write some more tunes and found that the partnership worked really well and we were both pleased with the results. Long story short - Peter Robinson, who was Graham’s A&R man when he and Andrew Gold were in Wax, heard a few tracks and said that he would like to be involved in getting the album out on his record label. After setting a date that we needed to finish the album by (the start of the 2011 UK tour), we spent the last 3 or 4 months finishing 10 tunes together that have all ended up on the album. As you can imagine, Graham’s influence has been immense and it became very obvious from the start that the album would be a joint production. As I say on the album notes, it has been a great experience and has turned out exactly how I imagined it to be. Straight ahead pop songs with lots of harmonies, even more guitars(!) and a little dash of that old 10cc humour. Oh yes, Rick Fenn helped out on a few tracks on the album,
which, by the way, is called “So The Story Goes” |

Without
The Beatles… TV producer Des Burkinshaw contacted us this week. Here’s what
he had to say… I've just interviewed Eric, Kevin, Graham and Lol separately
for a film I'm making called Without the Beatles.
10cc will play quite a prominent part in it. Maybe you and the 10cc fan club
website can help? The point of our film is to show how the Beatles had many
knock-on effects. All 4 of 10cc claim “no Beatles no 10cc”. I’m looking at
the impact Lol & Kev's video work had as well as the impacts of
Strawberry on music - neither of which would have happened without the
Beatles. However, what would be interesting would be to find a 10cc fan who
met his partner through 10cc (at a gig maybe) and as a result got married and
had children with one of those grown-up children now a GP or something? To
expand the point a bit more… if someone had a kid who became a doctor, I'd be
saying; "because of the Beatles, people are getting medical treatment
etc". It's about bringing the chain of events as close to the present
day as possible. For example, neither of you could run the 10cc fan club
without the Beatles because all 4 members of 10cc claim there would be no
10cc. Kev in fact said it was the only musical constant between the four of
them. Has running the club had any consequences? Did you meet your partner?
Did it save your life? Did you meet a life-changing friend? etc. You have to
use your imagination a bit! You get the idea - I've been all over the world looking for
those stories but am glad to be featuring 10cc. They were my 2nd fave band
after the Beatles and I’ve been in contact with all 4 since we tried to get a
BBC documentary off the ground when I was on the staff 10 years ago now.
People with stories can get in touch with me using des@withoutthebeatles.com or by
the Facebook page “without the beatles”. Cheers, Des I almost forgot to mention that there is a guitar signed by,
among several others, all 4 of the original 10cc members on our website. I will be auctioning it off
at the end of production for the Teenage Cancer Trust. So, can anyone help Des? We will be keeping you updated with
how the film is progressing, scheduled programming dates, etc etc as and when
we get any more details. Des also supplied us with our new front page
picture. |

Stay tuned for further details… Over on the Demo’s page, we

instrumental track called How Can I Make You Listen.
This went on to become a song on
10cc’s Ten Out Of 10 album, better known as Notell Hotel. We’ve done some splicing together to
bring you the demo-mix. We’ll be bringing more demo’s soon. Our YouTube
channel (www.youtube.com/10ccfanclub)
