Yeah I was at the NEC gig when Townsend came on. The Apollo gig was the same tour and had been rescheduled from the March. He did 2 nights and one ended up clshing with the FA Cup final replay v Spurs. Think it was 1st time a replay had ever been scheduled for a Thursday night and it had to be the night I had a ticket for Springsteen arrgghh !!! So ended up selling my 5th row gig ticket so I could go to the replay and buying a rear stalls ticket off a tout for the Bruce gig on the Wednesday. And then we go and lose to sodding Spurs :-(Concur with that - he'd done Hammersmith in 75 and not gone down too well (as he perceived it), came back in 81 touring The River and conquered the world. I was at the NEC and Townsend came on for the encore(s), which was odd as The Who famously don't encore. Sprinsteen does about 10 (or did in those days)
Great band the Slow Readers Club. Seen them live a few times.
I'm adding The Dead South to this list. Saw them this year and they were brilliant.
For voice Michael Macdonald is as good.George Michael was the best white soul singer bar none.
I live in hope that Hugh and JJ will resolve their issues.
That would have been Black and White or the Raven album mate.
I remember buying the Raven album from there in 3D hologram sleeve. Can't remember where I bought the Black and White album. Either Virgin, underground market or possibly Robinson's records.Recall going into town to buy Black and White and ‘feeling up’ the album to ensure the free white 33 Walk on By ep was inside. HMV turned up trumps.
