On Friday December 1st 2006, Phil Shoenfelt & Southern Cross went into a Prague studio to record a cover version of the Nikki Sudden classic "Death Is Hanging Over Me". This was at the request of Spanish indie label Sunthunder Records, who have been inviting various artists to record their favourite Nikki song. The compilation CD (provisionally entitled "Suddenly yours: a tribute to Nikki Sudden") will be released early next year on Sunthunder Records (watch this space for details about exactly when it will be released).

Nikki Sudden - in memorium

27.03.2006

"Nikki Sudden, who passed away in New York on Sunday March 26th, was a dear friend and a huge inspiration. Not only to me, but to thousands of other Rock & Roll hearts the world over. He burned like a star and lived like a star, and his music was incredibly special. Right up there with the Rock & Roll legends he was obsessed with. So much energy, so much creativity, so much life, so much generosity. When Angels Die, indeed...
Nikki, it was a huge privilege knowing you. With sadness and regret, but with exhilaration too. Condolences to your father and mother, and to your musical partners, past and present.

Your friend, Phil."
