Paul Easton poses with me by the Gold Record Gallery in his studio.
On a shoot for the BBC to the West Coast of Florida, met up with Paul Easton, a record producer with a studio in Bonita Springs. His father had been the agent for a long-dead performer of the 60s, and 70s, Mrs. Mills, a stride pianist who tended towards the popular with pub music of the “let’s all come together” war years of deprivation. Without a family of her own, Mrs. Mills spend a lot of time at Paul’s house. She was not a women who liked to lose at Monopoly. With a revival of her records (check her out on YouTube) in the U.K. the Beeb is doing a doc on the Mrs. Mills phenomenon. A long trek from Miami to Bonita Springs for a day’s shoot, but Kathy came along for the ride and ended up doing the interviewing. A good time had by all and a welling up of our own nostalgia for London.
