Sounds & Vision' is the new podchat coming soon online hosted by the original Rolling Stones manager/impresario/producer Andrew Loog Oldham, hoping for more of the same as his past shows such as 'From The Road' or the popular SiriusXM programme he shared with E-Street guitarist Steven Van Zandt - 'Sounds & Vision' will be the man himself sitting down and chopping it up with an exciting line up of names from both the past & present. From the music industry to art, fashion and of course the on-line world - its shaping up as one not to miss.

In the liner notes to P.P. Arnold’s long-overdue release The Turning Tide, Barry Gibb refers to the singer as “a girl inside a woman. Childlike in many ways, and yet her voice was somehow ancient.” His words only begin to describe a too-oft-overlooked voice of the sixties, and the artist behind that voice, whom he brought into the studio to record ten tracks in 1969.

Andrew Loog Oldham was born in 1944 in Paddington, West London.

When the album opens up with Steve Marriott  bragging at the start “I've got a new axe, it's gonna make me rock hard man! “, you just know you are about  to enter into a loud, powerful and epic voyage of pure rock ‘n’ roll.  And if you were lucky enough to be in attendance at the Fillmore you certainly got your money’s worth, as you do with this album.   Marriott and the boys play more than just a gig, they give a heroic performance that can now be remembered for the worth that it should.
