HISTORY

SOULSCAPE founder Garry J Cape was a partner in Grapevine Music Group from 2000 to 2007 and was responsible for business affairs, licensing and general operations. During that period Grapevine released thirty-five CDs and seventy 45s.

He brought to Grapevine the successful America's Most Wanted series and made the Malaco and Muscle Shoals Sound deals which resulted in albums of previously unheard recordings by southern soul stars such as George Jackson and Phillip Mitchell. Garry was also responsible for the highly-acclaimed Unmasked album by The Masqueraders and several other popular compilation albums including those in the New Orleans Soul and Chicago Soul series.

He was previously one of the premier English soul record dealers and made almost a hundred buying trips to the USA until  he sold his inventory in 2005.

In the 1990s Garry had operated the Black Grape label. Prior to that - in the late 1970s - he had founded the Hit and Run and Special Agent labels.

Apart from his forty-year involvement with soul music, Garry also enjoys classic country music and contemporary 'Americana'.

Garry's favourite non-music pursuits include collecting vintage Nat Nast and Tommy Bahama shirts, wearing shorts for as much of the year as possible (...subject of course to weather conditions) and travelling the American backroads. He enjoys Gulf Coast seafood, BBQ and Texas beer.
