Wasn't that the Brixton Academy shows where Cropper was absent (ill?) and Poncho played instead (but with the MGs)?
You could be right. My memory is perforated. Jules |

I saw him at Bury St Edmunds Apex. Shared the bill with The Animals, or what was left of them. A great night seated amongst a predominatey grey haired audience. A fine guitarist with a fine line in chat as well. He charmed my teenage daughter, sitting in the front row, after embarrasing her during his intro to Midnight Hour he came across and handed her a signed plectrum after the Green Onions encore. He probably had dozens of them but I think that we got the only one that night.

I went back to the memory well and recovered that I also saw Steve Cropper, Duck Dunn and Booker T. with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young in 2002, and with Neil Young on his 1993 U.S. tour.
Neil Young did the world a service by keeping Steve Cropper out there for a couple of decades. Otherwise, he might never have left Nashville.

Was just reading that - very sad. A major talent. Raul Malo was an amazing singer, and The Mavericks were a great band, live and on record. As a solo artist and with the band, Raul played Austin regularly. Nevertheless, I saw them only once, last year at the Austin City Limits 50th Anniversary celebration concert. I think they played three songs. They were always on my list, but somehow I always found a reason to say "next year." R.I.P. and thanks for the beautiful music. |
