Cado Belle meets Gregory's Girl in Easterhouse

Although there is scarcely any novelty in bands from yesteryear reforming to give a new audience (and many of the old one) the opportunity to discover their back catalogue, it is still sometimes the case that the ducks line up in a neat row by happenstance to settle some old scores.

Among the great lost combos of Glasgow's musical heritage, the name of Cado Belle is recalled with particular fondness by those who saw and heard them. They made just the one self-named album, released in 1976 on the short-lived Anchor label, but it stands up well as an example of blue-eyed soul funk alongside the work of the Average White Band and London's Kokomo (three of whom guested on the disc in supporting roles).
