Saturday Night Weaver

Live on the Midnight Special…All live versions of this after 1979 sound weak and more in a cabaret vain compared to this…The vocals are amazing…

There seems to be a synth part missing in the change from the slow section back into the groove…

The Old Grey Whistle Test – Strawbs ‘Tears and Pavan’

Last Friday 16th March I was a guest at  ’The Bee Gees Story” performed by The Italien Bee Gees in Papenburg, North Germany.

They asked if I would perform ‘Songbird’ and ‘Our Love(Don’t Throw It All Away)’ with them. We performed them just with voices and piano oh! and I asked their keyboard player just to add a little strings. This was the first time I had performed these songs onstage apart from a concert in Fort Lauderdale where I played ‘Our Love’ with Andy Gibb.

This was a magical night and I look forward to playing with the group again. If they are near you and you love the Bee Gees music go and see them you won’t be disappointed…

Terrible sound, I know it’s Pancake day but why did they have to have 2 tossers hosting the Backstage At The Brits and the male one was even called Lemon?
The only good thing was the MPG Producer of the year now automatically wins a BRIT but do they show that on the broadcast? maybe I blinked!

Had a great time at the MPG awards last thursday evening. Thanks to all directors and Bubble & Squeak for all the hard work,it just keeps getting better.
At last Blue meets Green. It was a pleasure to finally meet Green Gartside who, like me is from Cardiff. All we need now is Red and we could have a very colourful band RGB.

Tony Visconti confirms piano player on Bang A Gong Get It On…

This was a concert I had the pleasure of participating in. It was a once in a lifetime experience to be there with lasers shooting up from my feet to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Thank you Marc and apologies for being such a pain, I had a most terrible pain that night after eating something dreadful that afternoon…
