Coldcut continued their run of launching other artists’ careers with hit singles with Lisa Stansfield’s collaboration, People Hold On for which I engineered the recording at Livingston Studios. I remember Matt and Jon spending a long time searching for the wah-wah guitar sample motif which the track needed as a bit of a hook trademark. Lisa was brilliant fun to work with, and cheery soul with a great sense of humour! Not to mention a tremendous singer… I later worked with her on some of her solo material at Mayfair Studios.
