BIG re-issue news! Live at Klook’s Kleek and Live At The BBC with Brian Matthew

Out in May – a brand new VINYL  of “Live at Klooks Kleek”: a 50th anniversary re-issue of that iconic recording, which was produced by Gus Dudgeon. (Cos true fans will have worn their original copies to a wafer)…

  • “Live At Klooks Kleek”
  • “Big Roll Band live at the Flamingo”. This is a repackaged re release of “Where you There”
    originally released on Sanctuary in 2008.
  • “Big Roll Band live at the BBC ” – various Light Program Saturday Club performances in

    Zoot Money's Big Roll Band - The Live Collection

    The Live Collection

Veronica ‘Ronni’ Money (80 years young)

With a wounded heart it falls to me to thank all who have sent their kind thoughts for the
loss of one of the human race’s most beautiful souls so she can rejoin her fellow angels .

Ever lively, amusing, curious of everything and everybody, helpful, loving, ever witty,
cheeky, my little warrior woman Ronni passed through my and many other’s lives bestowing
advice, help and always with absolute frightening honesty.

Although hundreds had a truly valuable meeting or relationship with her either as Vera McCann,  Vonnie, Veronica, Veron or even ‘Scots Ronni’, I was the luckiest of all and got to be her soul mate for an unbelievable life commitment of over 50 years.

Although now alone, I not only have two sons, a daughter, two grandkids, a great grandchild and a further expected great grandchild to remind me of her positive attitude and beliefs…..
and that doesn’t include the thousands of moments and events she was involved in or
indeed instigated, that shall help spur me on with laughter and love in the future.

If you ever met her, consider yourself lucky and blessed but if you didn’t and  want to show
respect…. then help someone else and their family who have been affected by this vile unforgiving disease  via.    <veronicaronni.money.muchloved.com>

Thank you again.

The Manfreds, Zoot Money and PP Arnold at Lighthouse, Poole

“Zoot Money – who originally came from Bournemouth – and his Big Roll Band will be playing in a Rhythm & Blues concert to be staged at Lighthouse Poole on Friday 2nd December.

He will join the Manfreds whose line-up of original members includes Paul Jones, Mike D’Abo, Tom McGuinness and Mike Hugg as well as Rob Townsend, Marcus Cliffe and Simon Currie.

The concert will also feature PP Arnold who was an original Ikette with the Ike and Tina Turner Experience before being noticed by Mick Jagger and catapulted to stardom with her version of Cat Stevens’ song The First Cut is the Deepest.”
By Marilyn Barber

Excuse me while I kiss this guy…

This is the first guitar Jimi Hendrix played when he arrived in the UK.
Zoot Money tells Steve Owers (Danze Macabre) the tale, and shows off the extraordinary guitar. A little bit of rock history right there.

AND THAT’S NOT ALL, BIG ROLLERS!!  OH NO.

While you all assumed he’d shuffled off into retirement (oh, really – come on – this is Zoot we’re talking about here), Mr Money has in reality been in the studio recording a new album. And it’s ready. And it’s rockin’. Twin brothers Steve and Mark Owers, of Danze Macabre, have produced a CD of new songs written by Zoot, themselves and Mike D’Abo. And you’re going to love it. Available very, very soon from Treasure Island Music and the usual outlets.
