He was very nice, but I had to go check and I saw him in 2004, so he might well have gotten as old and crotchety as we are now.

Saw him in a tiny Blues club run by some mates of mine in a pub skittle alley in Whitecroft in the Forest of Dean.  Sadly,  it's closed now, but they had some big names appear there.

A name on that list is playing at the Bulls Head in Barnes tonight. Zoot Money- might take a snoop....

Go for it mate - I think it was a good night, but it was a long time ago and drink has been taken since then :)

Know the feeling. Can’t remember the last time my memory was this bad. What was the question again!

Went for a drive to day and my normal radio stations were knocked out after getting my car battery changed. So I ended up on classic station and caught a Dances with Wolves track composed by John Barry with the Philharmonic orchestra, rather nice for a change.

I've given it a few listens. Pretty good album, not really sure it deserved to make it to #1 in the charts.
