I only saw him live the once...with Neil and the MGs, Finsbury Park, 1993. That was a fab day. RIP, Sir. I saw him then and I think a second time, also with Neil, just after Are You Passionate came out. Man was a true musical titan. RIP indeed. Jules Wasn't that the Brixton Academy shows where Cropper was absent (ill?) and Poncho played instead (but with the MGs)? |

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!  I saw them in Glasgow 15-20 years back, on the back of a time spent loving music by bands like String Cheese Incident, Yonder Mountain String Band etc etc. That whole bluegrass jam band scene created some pretty decent music. I have to say they've entirely dropped off my radar, and the only recorded music of theirs I've got does nothing for me but they were great live, and I strongly imagine still are.... |

I got to see Steve Cropper once as Dave Mason’s guest a few years ago. I felt honored to be in his presence. Some friends saw the actual Blues Brothers on their 1981ish tour. RIP

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. |
