I'M ALIVE by SAGE

Beginning the musical quest in 1969, Sage started the journey - never taking the typical path - staying true to the mission of playing good R&B funk and soul.The eight-piece band were always about the live experience and that big-full sound they like to deliver at performances. Their love of playing live seems to have left little in the way of a vinyl legacy, about 8 years ago sage one 45 'Alive' popped up from nowhere on the collector's scene causing some controversy for its Latin horns and sunshine soul sound, not real soul to some old grump collectors. A rare marmite of a record with fantastic poppy changes and driving breaks nobody will be disappointed, got to be a big festival record and a fantastic ballad on the flip, it's a winner.
