The Stars From The Commitments

Check out this amazing version of ‘Get Ready’ from one of our incredible vocalists, Antoinette Dunleavy and brilliant sax solo by Serge Stavila.

Kenneth McCluskey (a.k.a. Derek “The Meatman” Scully) recalls the time Dennis Edwards, from The Temptations, joined the band on stage to duet ‘Get Ready’ with Robert Arkins (a.k.a. Jimmy Rabbitte) at The Shepherd's Bush Empire in London, in 1997.

“What I can remember is, Dennis was an absolute gent with a huge stage presence and voice. During the day of the show we did a soundcheck to run over some numbers and work out some voicings and arrangements. Dennis was a great man for coming up with ideas and suggestions and it was a real pleasure to work with such a talented and positive man.”

Dennis replaced David Ruffin as lead singer of The Temptations in 1968 and was the voice of Grammy Award winning hits including ‘Papa Was a Rolling Stone’ and ‘Cloud Nine’.

Sadly he passed away on 01 February, 2018.

Check out this amazing version of Do Right Woman from one of our incredible vocalists, Sandii Jane Hyland.

Kenneth McCluskey (AKA Derek “The Meatman” Scully) recalls some Commitments movie memories regarding this song. "If I recall correctly we were in Windmill Lane Recording Studios in Dublin and I heard Niamh Kavanagh’s vocal of the Aretha Franklin song 'Do Right Woman, Do Right Man'. It was fantastic. I remember hearing it at the time and being blown away.

Niamh subsequently went on to represent Ireland and win the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993 with "In Your Eyes".
