Back in the days of the Belfast Beat (Maritime Blues) scene, Sam Mahood played with Just Five and later toured with the Sam Mahood Soul Foundation. Sam was a well known character around Belfast in his orange corduroy jacket, blue corduroy trousers, knee high boots and with his long curly hair. He gave the impression of being a quiet and gentle man but when he started singing he could belt it out with great energy and was often referred to as Belfast’s James Brown.
He disappeared off the scene for a few years and a number of rumours flew about as to where he had gone to but he eventually made a comeback and the power of his singing had in no way diminished. Soul man Sam died in December 2007 and this concert marks the fifth anniversary of his passing.
