11.00 - There was another mention of Kasim Sulton on a Jim Steinman mailing list in connection with his work with Celine Dion and the song It's All Coming Back To Me Now. Daniel Meistrup wrote:
One odd bullet point on Sulton's résumé is session work on Celine Dion's Falling Into You album in 1996. That job came along courtesy of Meat Loaf writer/composer Jim Steinman.
"After the first Meat Loaf album that I did way back, I became very good friends with Jim Steinman," says Sulton. "Whenever he works on a project, I'm his go-to guy for a couple of things: bass playing and background vocals. He was approached to produce a couple of tracks for Celine, and so Jim goes into his little secret vault and picks out a song that he's already done and says, 'I want her to do this one.' That song, 'It's All Coming Back To Me Now,' had been recorded on one of his albums in the early '80s. We had the song pretty much done, but we tried to do a better version of it, and it wound up not happening, so he used the older version, and we did some backgrounds on it and changed some things here and there. That's how that happened."
This quote comes from an interview that Kasim Sulton gave to Brian Baker of Cincinnati CityBeat back in June 2001. Click here to view the whole interview (a link has also been added to the Articles / Interviews section of the site.
05.45 - Apparently recently there have been some mentions of Kasim Sulton on a Jim Steinman mailing list! Many thanks to David M. Driskell for telling me about these posts. The first posts were about whether or not Kasim appears on some tracks by Karine Hannah.

For those who can't make any of the concerts, please just enjoy the pictures!
