Dr. Melville started out as a music journalist for a black music magazine called Blues and Soul.

In 1992, he moved to San Francisco and founded a jazz magazine named On the One with some friends.

They did a really good job, though there was not a lot of money in it.

In 1997, he moved back to London and started teaching, and made the decision to find another way to write about music.

He grew up in London.

He feels that the music in London clubs has formed him.
