SCOBIE RYDER

Excelling in English  &  Art, Scobie won a scholarship place at the prestigious Glasgow School of Art.
Then, an “artistically reckless folk singer”, he promptly dropped out of Art School; heading instead, for the bright lights of London... to find a larger audience for his ever expanding, self-penned song collection.
A short spell working as a street musician, while living in a parked van in Soho Square honed his natural communication and entertainment skills. Scobie’s highly prolific song writing talent soon led him to the offices of Pop Music Gurus Bill Martin&Phil Coulter and a 3 year music publishing and major record deal with EMI Records in 1979.
Soon after, SCOBIE made a five-year touring and writing and production commitment to Bay City Roller Leslie Mckeown; launching Mckeown’s solo career in 1981. This creative venture proved to be very fruitful and with 3 gold albums to his credit, Scobie then set up as a partner in his first indie music label “Plezure Records” in Camden Town, London. Working with seminal underground acts like…Naked Lunch&Ed Buller and a host of other electro pioneers.
Scobie received further recognition as 3 times winner of the prestigious Ampex Golden Reel Award for Music Production Excellence. The first time it was ever awarded outside the USA.
Fate and fortune have often conspired to place ScobieRyder in somewhat bizarre creative situations. In 1981, he found himself in Zambia writing the Music soundtrack for the feature film “Touch of the Sun”, with Pete Gage of "Vinegar Joe” fame. This motion picture, shot on location in Africa, starred Oscar winner and internationally renowned bon vivant Oliver Reed.
In Africa, Scobie recorded the Zambian National Orchestra and during the 14-week shoot, became firm friends with “Ollie” Reed. After a chance meeting in Lusaka, legendary soul star Mr James Brown, invited Scobie to sing and perform alongside the Godfather of Soul “live” on stage…and although for one night only… it was a “A truly unforgettable experience!
