Where else better to see a band named Railroad Earth than in the Caverns of Grundy, Tennessee on February 21?
Now they would be a superb act for Cropredy!  |

The Wandering Hearts, an Americana band, singing their own compositions as well as songs from ‘Deja Vu’ by Crosby, Stills and Nash and Young, which they recently re-recorded. The show was called ‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas’ and was peppered with classics and more recent songs such as Joni Mitchell’s ‘River’, plus staples by Chris Rea, East 17 etc…all sung in their own individual style, with brilliant harmonies and acoustic instruments. They finished off with ‘Fairytale of New York’. Enjoyable whether or not you are a Christmas fan. Now, I'm sure they're grand. But please explain the concept to me. I'm absolutely flummoxed... https://hmv.com/store/music/cd/deja-vu-(we-have-all-been-here-before)?gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20747508888&gbraid=0AAAAACmFV8XD5cEDx5pq68s97WvS7ZfYt&gclid=CjwKCAiA3L_JBhAlEiwAlcWO5xDdsGmn8wvpmS2fG594AQQwmIwjcPYh_pFxg2hZoXdUMQHXxqFq_hoCNSUQAvD_BwE They only said they had been to The Joshua Tree to record this album, didn’t say any whys or wherefores…We just happened to see them because they happened to be in Newcastle when we were visiting, I have no prior knowledge but it was a nice little concert, they are fantastic singers and musicians. |

Not a name many will know, but per Darts Facebook page, Sandra Charles of the (mostly) a cappella group Mint Juleps. As an extension of the old blog I used to write, after writing a piece about them, I decided to start a FB tribute page to them. After a few months I was about to pull the plug on it when lo and behold one of Sandra's sisters came across the page and put the word out They collectively were tickled pink that anyone, let alone an American might remember them and for a few years we had a lot of fun together reminiscing about things I found from deep in the archives. My last trip to London in 2018 I even met 3 of the other sisters that were in the group, and had a brief phone chat with Sandra which I will long remember So many clips I could play but here's one with Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Sandra sings lead starting with 'near the village' part

Martyn Joseph at the Laundry Theatre, Bowness. First time there for us but won’t be the last - a lovely space, virtually in the round and very good acoustics. MJ on great form with a mixture of old favourites and songs from the new album, Troubled Horses. Looking forward to playing it later. Evening made by meeting old friends whom we hadn’t seen for25 years. It was if we had been with them last week. Glad to hear MJ us still on great form. Haven't seen him for a few years, but I saw him do some brilliant gigs pre-Covid |

On ebay , described as authentic & genuine , a signed copy of Amy Winehouse's posthumous Lioness CD , For under a tenner inc P&P I reported it to Ebay , they investigated, and found it didn't contravene any of their policies , which tells you all you need to know about Ebay If eBay got rid of all the patently false 'autographed items' on its platform there would be virtually nothing left. I regularly see signed items I know absolutely to be fakes selling for hundred of pounds. And the more they emphasise the 'Certificate of Authenticity' (oh, how we laugh) the more likely the item is to be a deception. You'd be amazed how many sharpies there were around in the mid 1970s.... |
