Shaboom - Bessie

Bessie - brings some of the best out of the Mark Bell, Magik Johnson and Flash Atkins. Taka Boom on vox.

It is based in Blackpool, the Mecca of the North and The Las Vegas of the British Riviera.

Where the sun always shines.

The three met through a mutual appreciation of dance music, Dick and Ben over the counter of a Manchester Record shop while Dick had known Mark from his reputation as Blackpool's studio maverick. They all got together in Marks' studio along with M-People keyboardist Paul Birchall and emerged with Wildride, a wild-pitch influenced house track which was snapped up by Rob's Records and they realised that the studio bound smoking competition should be repeated.

Paper Recording's fifth release, Bust-a-Bubble/Nokturnal was followed by Bessie (later to come out on Warner Brothers) and Shaboom emerged out of Blackpool's polluted sea front. Shaboom Records was born soon after as an outlet for their material and some of the gems hidden in Mark's back catalogue that he recorded with US types like Marshall Jefferson and Doc Martin.

This is crucial English house.
