That was a first for me. To the glorious Tower Ballroom to see Richard Hawley, but beforehand we got the Tower organist playing Oasis tunes and then I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside, before disappearing down into the stage. Richard Hawley was excellent, playing all of Cole’s Corner before a set of his other best known songs. First time I have seen him and hopefully not the last.

I'm glad I saw him once - Hammersmith Odeon on the Oh Mercy tour, so I guess it was 1990. Pretty sure I'll never see him again though. He had a few years of doing Hammy Odeon runs around then. I saw a couple...one with Ron Wood appearing. On one he played Wiggle Wiggle and I kid you not...it was awesome! Also saw him at Wembley in '84 and Hyde Park in '96. All decent (especially Wembley) although the last one was a little bit iffy. Funnily enough I've seen a few clips of things in the last year or so that have piqued my interest, but I generally think he's a complete parody of himself going through the motions these days. |

Honestly, I have so many versions of so many Pink Floyd albums that the appeal is really quite low.
I'll see what the price is. |

Wish You Were Here 50th Anniversary box set, in multiple formats, just announced! For me, the golden ticket is a 1975 live recording from Los Angeles, surreptitiously taped by a legendary bootlegger named Mike Millard. I have a couple of his recordings, and for an amateur, he produced highly listenable recordings. His tape of The Who at the LA Coliseum in 1989 is superior to the official Join Together release from the same tour, in my opinion. Really looking forward to hearing Floyd in 1975. I understand he also recorded one or more shows from the Animals tour, which I would also love to see officially released. It's definitely tempting. Just don't show many any photos of Roger Waters while I'm making my mind up. Jules |

Phoenix Festival, Long Marston. 14th July 1995. Couldn't see what all the fuss was about.....but that's my loss, I guess. You're never going to see what all the fuss is about from one Bob Dylan gig. Especially one from the mid 90s. Or, for that matter, now. Jules |

Did see Bob Dylan in 1979/80 somewhere in London Pretty sure that would have been 1981, as I don't think he played outside the US and Canada in 1979/80. Jules Phoenix Festival, Long Marston. 14th July 1995. Couldn't see what all the fuss was about.....but that's my loss, I guess. |

I believe there was a short tour in Spain with Ashley, DM, Steve Knightly and Phil Beer - a sort of "Show of Albionport"

Things I never knew part 423.1 Alan Prosser (Oysterband) was (briefly) in the Albions... c.'83, I think. Yes and he would shake his head from side to side in time with the music!! |
