Bax & O'brien Podcast

Baxie talks with 80’s Pop/New Wave/MTV sensation Belouis Some! In this interview Belouis (ne: Neville Keighly) talks about his fascinating journey from being a virtually ignored solo artist to recording his first album in 1985 with the likes of Carlos Alomar and Earl Slick (both from David Bowie’s band) as well as Bernard Edwards and Tony Thompson from Chic. That first album would yield two international hits (“Imagination” and the title track “Some People). Belouis talks about the release of his controversial music videos and about being handpicked to support Queen on tour the following year. He also talks openly about walking away from music in 1995 and why he made an incredible comeback after 24 years! Belouis Some was to begin touring the US with The Alarm and Jay Ashton’s Gene Loved Jezebel later this month! That tour which as to include stops in Northampton and New Haven has been postponed. But the Belouis Some story is so amazing that it needs to be told! Listen on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, Spotify,
