The beginning...
T-spoon is the story of two adventurous young men who went for it and would
not take no for an answer.
They were "Taking To The Limit" and they had "No Time To Waste". These two music
enthusiastics were named Shamrock and Prince Peration. They met in Holland
in the early 90's, Shamrock born as Shalamon Baskin in San Diego, Califonia,
had at that stage a short career in the U.S. Army behind him which brought him to the American
base in Holland.
Shamrock had completed his apprenticesship with "Hi TEK 3" with whom he
recorded an album named "The Easiest Way" early in 1990 under the direction
of Jo Bogaert (Technotronic).
The Dutch born Prince Peration had also been busy for years composing music.
He never thought of taking it seriously as a career...Until he met Shamrock,
who had a powerful idea on tape, a demo of the chart proved song "No Time To Waste".
The two came together with production team Serge Ramaekers and Dominic Sas remixed
this first single to be released in Germany, unfortunately the record company in question went
broke before the planned release. In the meantime the Ramaekers/Sas production team
formed a company (Say No More..!Productions) which was held high esteem thanks to their
version of Freddy Mercury's "Living On My Own", a huge hit all over Europe.
1993-1996
Together they attacked the project a fresh and with new zeal. This time
they landed a Top 10 hit. They released their first album "Joy, Life and Pain"
European-wide in the spring of 1995.
T-Spoon has performed and recorded with many different singers-variety
being the spice of life, the boys like to experiment with different flavours within
the unit. What's next is always a surprise although unmistakabely T-Spoon.
Shamrock's stage presence is sensational and the songs are dynamite - a tough act to follow!
Very early in the piece, the duo had been reflecting over their progress. Shamrock said while
stirring a cup of tea "I'd rather have a gold record than a gold tea spoon any day".
"That's it" exclaimed Prince Peration, "That's the name",
and so the name T-Spoon was born and the gold record is probably not far away!
During 1994 the group completed it's apprenticeship delivering three top ten
hits to the people of the Benelux on stage and through media channels. The whisper
born in Holland and spoken through musical avenues everywhere grown to a roar as the
T-Spoon team snowballed from one success to the next.
Lead vocals was performed by Jean Shy from Chicago, a legend in her own
right with roots firmly fastened in the soil of Gospel, Soul and Rock.
Backing vocals was done by Blonde who added a delightful and soulful
texture to the track.
Last but not least came Shamrock delivering a superb rap in which he sums up
the hopes, frustrations and desires expressed by Janis, in his own charismatic
fashion. Anyone between the ages of 5 and 80 can relate to the symptoms of "Mercedes
Difficiency Syndrome" and smile about it when they are voiced by Shamrock.
After releasing a remix album of "Joy, Life & Pain" one female vocalist joined the group.
Linda Estelle has a great voice and even live she's fantastic! She made her debut on
T-Spoon's fifth single "See the light", which originally didn't contain her voice,
but was added on the single-release. Linda can be heard on every song of the album
"Lexicon of Melody", which includes the pre-released dance smashes "A Part Of My Life",
"Rockstar", "Someone Loves You Honey" and "Smiling". The album is a very versatile
dance-album, including all kinds of dance styles including Happy Hardcore, Euro, Club and
even R&B tracks!
1997
In June 1997 the single "Sex on the Beach" was released.
In the beginning of October 1997 a single called "Message Of Love (One Look At You)", was
released in Holland. That single was taken from the album "The Hit Collection".
In the end of 1997 a single called "Merry Christmas" was released. All the profits
was given to the Terre Des Hommes foundation. This foundation fights against
childslavery in the world.
1998
In April 1998 the single is "Tom's Party" was released and it's a combination of
Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner", 10CC's "Dreadlock Holiday".
Shamrock left T-Spoon in 1998 because he wanted to explore other parts of
the music world. Linda, Tevka and Shamrock are still the best of friends so
they didn't split up because of a disagreement. The act now consists of American vocalist/rapper
Greg Dillard and Dutch vocalist Linda Estelle. They will be accompanied by several
dancers on their shows like Anatevka.
1999
A single called "Got 2 Get U Back/Delicious" was released in the Benelux on the
March 22, 1999.
The album entitled "T-Spoon" was released in April, 1999.
The single "Sex On The Beach" was released domestically in the
US and Canada the second half of June 1999.
The single "Summer Love" was released in June 1999.
On October 11, 1999 T-Spoon released a single called "I Want To Be Your Man".
2000-Present
In May 2000 the single "Delicious" was released, although the single was released in
Belgium already in October 1999. The single also contains T-spoon's contribution to the
Euro 2000 event with the song "F.O.O.T.B.A.L.L.".
T-Spoon currently consists of only one member Linda.
Greg has left the band. Or better said...he was put out of the band by the judge
several months ago. So Greg is out of the picture after spending a little bit more
than a year with T-Spoon. Now it's just Linda Estelle who has been with
T-Spoon since 1994/1995.
In August 2001 the single "Sexy Lady" was released.
In 2003 the single "No Time 2 Waste 2k3" was released. The single included a bonustrack
entitled "Alive & Kicking!".
On June 17, 2004 the single "Sex On The Beach 2004" was released.
