The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Lowell George, Humble Pie, Level 42 and Kid Creole. All amazing acts live and on disc.
Yes, I'm back! Very busy preparing next release. No hit on the first one. Having the time of my life despite very hard work putting everything together.
Full report soon, however, anyone making music for the money is going to be disappointed at the moment. Talk about tough out there...phew! Physical is dead, long live ipod etc.

two that come to mind immediately for me
are the late Jimmy Campbell (Kirkbys, 23rd Turnoff,
Rockin' Horse and three amazing solo lp's).
Check out the fan website at Myspace for him:
profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction...p;friendid=105220499
includes some wonderful tracks and tributes.
the other is the late Duncan Browne who I found one
of the most amazing songwriters/guitarists ever.
Never quite figured out why Nick Drake was worshipped and Duncan was overlooked.

Love the PJ Proby thought Elliott - I have huge respect and memories of him - hopefully you went backstage and passed him my fond regards!
If you've not heard it, one of the great records of all time (never even a sniff of a hit) was Proby's I Can't Make It Alone, produced and written in 1966 by Jack Nitzsche who did all the Righteous Brothers arrangements for Spector.
One of my all time top ten faves.
