Excerpts from issue #1 of the Soultearoa Shakedown fanzine:

Aside from being one of life's true gentlemen, Gene is also the host of Chocolate Sundae, one of the longest running shows on George FM. And there's good reason for that, too. You can confirm why by listening (along with many, many others) to him every Sunday from 4-6pm.

2. Leroy Burgess - Mainline
3. Johnny Hammond - Tell Me What To Do

Vanessa Freeman has the voice of an angel. She has worked with everyone from Kyoto Jazz Massive, 4 Hero and Bugz In The Attic to Azymuth, Nathan Haines and Phil Asher. We love Vanessa and we're hoping to have her appear at a future NZ Soul All Dayer...
Issue #2 will be available for FREE at the next NZ Soul All Dayer event - also FREE, from midday til midnight, Saturday 17 August, at the Britomart Country Club.
