	cafe80s: "Pete Waterman Motormouth"
		The Pete Waterman of today is filled with energy and vitality, someone who's learned a lesson or two over the last decade and has brought his business full circle.
		Despite this beef, Waterman is unstinting in his praise for the Libra, which he describes as being as revolutionary as the SSL was when he discovered it.
		So the future is looking bright for Waterman, and it is obvious that he could have continued expounding his opinions for the rest of the day, but he had to leave to make a football match with Zomba director Steve Jenkins, with whom he's had a working relationship for 28 years.

	BBC NEWS \| In Depth \| Newsmakers \| Pete Waterman: Lucky, lucky, lucky
		Success in the fickle world of the charts does not come so often without some ability to discern the habits of the pop buying public and as such Pete Waterman is, without any doubt, a master of his game.
		Phenomenally successful, Pete Waterman once bought 18 Ferraris at one go and became the first man to purchase a piece of the privatised British Rail as well as once owning the legendary locomotive The Flying Scotsman.
		Pete Waterman brushes off criticism that his music is bland, saying: "If you don't like it, don't listen." But, with a track record like his, there can be little doubt that millions of people will continue to listen for years to come, Dylan or no Dylan.

	Stock, Aitken & Waterman - Biography - AOL Music
		In the mid- to late '80s and early '90s, the London-based team of Mike Stock, Matt Aitken, and Pete Waterman was to European dance-pop what L.A. & Babyface and Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis were to urban contemporary: a slick, well-oiled producing/songwriting team that had a reputation for cranking out one major after another.
		Stock, Aitken & Waterman were about as commercial as it gets -- at times, they were downright bubblegum -- and that fact wasn't lost on the British rock critics who bashed them unmercifully.
		Stock, Aitken & Waterman was the team that American star Donna Summer turned to when, in 1989, she wanted to return to a Euro-disco/Euro-dance approach.

		In fact, it was a rare week in the 1980s when SAW (Stock Aitken and Waterman) didn't dominate the top 20 and no matter how hip you think your record collection is now, chances are there are a few of their 7 inches lurking in there somewhere.
		His SAW years are chronicled in a laid-back, colloquial fashion and Waterman's no nonsense voice shines through, albeit often peppered with bad language.
		But with Pete Waterman what you see is what you get, and what you get here is one of the best insights into the music business to be published in recent years.
