Squeeze and Jools Holland drummer Gilson Lavis. Loved his playing. Think he had been ill Very sad to hear this, reading the many tributes on FB now - RIP Gilson, a sticksman of style and versatility... I saw Jools a couple of times in the 80s before he formed his Big Band when it was a trio of himself, Gilson and a bass player. Sad news. He was a fine drummer. |

Sad news. The Railway Folk Club in Portsmouth, which sadly closed in 2003, hosted Archie for their very last gig - an excellent evening of music from a true gentleman of the genre. I remember him playing his own versions of The Wounded Whale and Dark Eyed Molly, as covered by FC.

Steve Knightly and The Winter Yards Band at The Gate, Cardiff, last night. I enjoyed this gig for two reasons. Firstly, Steve and his band were excellent, with a varied set, which included some old favourites and plenty from his last album, 'The Winter Yards'. Secondly, and this was a lovely surprise, the support act, True Foxes (who I'd not heard before) were wonderful. They consist of cousins Amie Parsons and Chloe Payne, who sing and play acoustic guitar and acoustic bass. I was bowled over by their harmonies, musicianship and original songs. They joined Steve and the band for some songs in the second half. This included the encore, a brilliant version of 'Cousin Jack', in which their voices helped to push the chorus to greater heights.
This new band were very good and the three musicians backing Steve - David Delarre (guitar) Evan Carson (percussion) and John Parker (double bass) were in fine form. I've seen Steve many, many times, both with Show of Hands and solo over the past 25 years or so. Steve did what Steve does, if you like that sort of thing, which I do, you would have enjoyed this concert. |

Saying you know what the issues are but that you won't actually say what the issues are is textbook teasing

And a very nice man. I met him at Lytham Folk Club in the early seventies and he was very generous talking to this gauche teenager.
