Hrl"jig:i;uin about 3months Anan & narrU Dec1ee7 THE KEVIN WILLIAMS PROJECT An exclusiveinterview with BERNIE SHAW You may recallthat we reportedin the last issuethat Berniewas ofl to Canadato do the vocalslor his friend KevinWilliams new CD. As promisedlast time Bernienow gives us moredetails. Alan: Howdid it come aboutthat you did this sessionfor Kevin? Bernie: Well sadly Kevin'swile Fleneehad a large malignantbrain tumour and they'd knownlor quite a long time that she didn'thave very long.Sadly she passedaway just this last Christmaswhen I was over. I'd met her a few times,she was a really lovelylady who alwaysbacked Kevin, he wasn't so much a frustratedbass playerbut he kindaplayed for himselfand not too often in the limelight.He was a friendthrough a friend and when I was "ln putting Transit"together a coupleof years ago, he was one of the lirst guys I thought of for playingbass. lt workedout reallygood becausehe'd built himselfa recordingstudio and we usedit as a rehearsalroom, being a perfectionisthe had a very nice bassrig and a Warwickbass, he had a PA systemwhich our band "ln Transit" usedwhen we playedour two shows and though he was probablythe least proficientmusician in the band, he was by far the hardestworker. We all had a real laugh and what was really good was that Renee actually got to ses the band. She was kept busy becausewe did everything ourselves,we rentedthe hall, did the promotion,sorted the drinks out for the bar and it was good for her becausepeople who are ill need lo keep active to preventthe illness grabbinghold much faster. But as I said, she passedaway last Christmasand Kevingot togetherwith the Keyboard/guitarplayer I was using, Steve Moyer, and startedwriting songs as a dedicationto Renee,just somethingto rememberher by.
