My nephew saw Supertramp a few days ago and said they were brilliant.
Trying to get him to Cropredy and they would probably seal the deal.
Isn't it great when our music carries on down the generations ?
"Supertramp" currently has an eight strong line-up, a brass section but incredibly no Roger Hodgson. Given a choice, I would much prefer to see Roger Hodgson back at Cropredy. |

Consider Dougie MacLean, Boo, MCC and Chris & Julie seconded!
I'd also love to hear Allan Taylor, Something Nasty in the Wood Shed and the Helen Watson Trio. And may I curse in church by requesting Marc Almond?

Hmm. Both daughter & son were honorary PHPs from toddlerhood & are now fully inducted into the mystic arts. I'm now working on the eight year old grandson. Banana nirvana. Have a cuppa tea & keep worrying, Jules  You evil, evil man!  Jules I love Gong, but that probably comes as no surprise  |

I'd be worried if another generation started getting into G*ng.  Jules If Gong stretched all their songs out to a minimum of half an hour apiece, with incessant noodling, so they could do an entire tour without ever repeating any, you'd love them! |

From my original list, I've just realised that I missed out one of my favourites of the last 7-8 years. The Gourds. I think they'd go down very well with the Croppers crowd. Anyone agree?  |

Fr the new up and coming acts, could I mention one or two highly talented bands from Liverpool- The Random Family and Sparkwood & 21. I first came across these two bands at a small festival, Music with a View in Coniston. These are two of a set of really good acts around the Liverpool area that I have grown to really enjoy. As Fairport are renowned for their support for emerging talent, It would be a blast tio see these two given a bigger stage.
If you are in or around Liverpool - Check if the Family Folk Up is on at St Bride's Church or the Company Store in Zanzibar- Acoustic/Indie Folk appears to be alive well and kicking at present

I saw Wilko Johnson on Friday and, do you know what, I think he'd be superb.

I keep going on about The Blockheads , who i think are magnificent. Getting Wilko along would work great because he plays with the Drummer and the fantastic Bass player Norman Watt Roy both from the Blockheads. I can see it now Wilko and the boys finish off with "Back in the Night" quick break for Norman to change his suit [ which always ends up soaked in sweat ] and on come the Blockheads - Norman says" we are the Blockheads and we go like this:-" and the riff of "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll " hits a jumping crowd. Back to reality now it's mid October , cold and I'm a bit skint |

I've not heard them, but I must investigate. Dave, their early 3 or 4 albums are really bluegrass, folky with a hard edge. The later ones have added an electric side. Plenty of fiddle, accordian and mandolin in evidence, throw in 3 great singers and for me it's a beautiful recipe! Very quirky lyrics too! |

Sparkwood & 21 were excellent when we saw them supporting the Clientele at Williamson Tunnels earlier this year, their album is really good. I'd also add By the Sea and the wonderfully named Misery Guts, who are probably my favourite of all the new Liverpool bands - their new EP 'More Human Than Human' is easily the most played item in our house at the moment. |
