Down To Earth [2021] - An Interview with Gary Van Den Bussche on Starpoint Radio 19th Oct 2021


After his recent interview with Cornell CC Carter I was chatting with Gary Van Den Bussche last week and we agreed that he also interview Down To Earth live on his lunchtime radio show on Starpoint radio. That interview took place at lunchtime today (19 Oct 2021).

Get to know them and appreciate how they got their name. I'm rather 'embarrassed' at the compliments they heaped on the blog ... all in a days work, it's just fantastic that I was able to do so by the quality of the material and that so many others have also appreciated their album as it couldn't happen to a nicer couple of 'geezers'! 

I'm looking forward to the new album and if the demo of "Waiting For You" played during the interview is anything to go by then we should be in for another treat! Another previously unheard track was also played which was their version on Nat King Cole / George Benson "Nature Boy".

It was announced during the interview that their current UK soul chart topping album "Still Ridin' High" will be released on limited edition vinyl by Patrick Biggerstaff's Izipho Soul, 300 on gold and 300 on black vinyl which, due to long lead times, won't be out until spring 2022. No pre-orders are being taken until nearer the time. 

Also they will be performing live on the Starpoint Thames Cruise on 11 Dec 2021 which also features Romina Johnson. To book call  Carl on 07957 195762.

The tracks have been rearranged into:

'The Meat Side
Everyday
Ridin' High
Love Guaranteed
Real Kinda Love
Gimme tonight

and 

'The Sweet Side'.
I Promise
Where I Wanna Be
Right From The Start
Gotta Get Next To You
Unfortunately True

If you need reminding of how good the album is then you can listen here.
