Then why spell it with an uppercase F and H and make it sound so enticing? But, no, you're probably right. Jules |

The latter.
She certainly is well alive and out gigging regularly with Dave Kelly.

I still think there are few finer artists, guaranteed (almost) to wow any audience, than the Space Captain himself, Joe Cocker...

Now there is an artiste who, imho, has destroyed every ounce of credibility he ever had. His choice of material and 'sound' over the last, what, 35 years is enough to destroy even the greatest of legacies. But, if you can guarantee me, he'll play nothing he's recorded after '75, I'm in......  |

I could happily do without the singing gas fitter, but Rolf Harris would be great as the Thursday headliner - he's 81 this year and still does a great festival set so I'm told.

maggie bell doesnt sing the taggart theme tune anymore, i watched it the other night and it was the same song but a new and quite different recording,i.e. Not maggie Bell
i saw stone the crows and she wasnt that brilliant, she wasnt a janis joplin after whom she had certainly based her style. IMO the best thing she did was every picture tells a story with Rod Stewart(back in the days when he wasnt the old f**t hes tuned into)

For amusement value, perhaps, but after his three legs, two little boys and a boomerang, there's not a lot left to savour... |

Are you kidding ? I saw him at Glasto in '94, he was fantastic. Believe me, Cropredy would love him |
