Who are Full Flava? In short Rob Derbyshire and an ad hoc group of musicians. In fact, Derbyshire is the heart and soul of Full Flava. Full Flava is in essence a production team that aims to encourage new Soul talent as well recording existing Soul singers with great material. To date Full Flava has released three awesome albums packing them with both new and established talent performing some of the very best Soul music produced in the UK.
Carleen Anderson is well known in UK Soul circles. She is a consumate performer who oozes Soul with every breath. Her 2007 performance of Was That All It Was? as Full Flava's feature artist remains a highlight. Pure and simple, this is British Soul at it's most excellent. Released by Dome Records it also reflects the very high standards of that company over what it chooses to release. But then Dome and Full Flava enjoy a unique relationship. I hope they continue to do so for many more years and give us even more superb Soul music.
