We are currently trying to compile a definitive list of press over the last 20 years – if you have any links or copies of old press, please let us know in the ‘comments’ form below.

  1. Between two churches is brilliant. I have no idea how there are mixed reviews. I played the album for a few friends (who did not like Black) and they were astonished. Charlemagne seems to be one of the best songs CV has ever written. How the hell this man does not get a major record deal and sell millions of records is beyond me. Are people that stupid! go Colin!

  2. Just a suggestion, but instead of looking at old press, why not allow a service such as this one where i am typing, where fans can relay messages about CV’s music. I know other artists do that, but it would be nice to get a feel of what people are thinking, and connect us as a whole. Stupid idead?

  3. Hi Allan – just to let you know that there are two forums where fans can relay messages about CV’s music and you can get to them via the ‘links’ section of this site – they’re B-Side Black, and the Wonderful Life Yahoo Discussion Group.

  5. I have loads of early press clippings from all the magazines that were around at the time 86-88. Reviews, interviews and pics. I even have around 14 different videos of Black and Colin Vearncombe.

  6. Hey Mr Black, your music can not stop, please look deep inside and come back!
    You are strong and powerful! Remember “It’s a wonderful life?” It’s one of the best musics ever made, so make us happy with your songs again.
    Everybody is waiting…

  7. CV is a jewel in the crown that is the British music industry. His songs are crafted and tailored and his voice is a scarce resource. Come and play at my house Colin and I will let everyone in to listen…
