the albert hall concert was a long, long time ago.

a review is underneath the itunes list.

[Diane]

Ah. When I clicked on that link my iTunes store opened, so I closed it before I saw the review. I looked up Tiny Tim on youtube. This place is nothing if not an education! I trust you had a flutter on Buddy Holly.

i would have lost my money if i'd had a flutter :

Yes, Bob Dylan does look a tad uncomfortable in that video.

Diane - I remember seeing footage of Dylan appearing at a Springsteen concert, forgetting or not seeing where the microphone was and singing to himself for almost a minute until Bruce nudged him towards it. It was hilarious.
Well I'll let the Cocker & Knopfler & Jagger fans continue on with no further interruption

Diane - thanks the heads up about Crossroads 2010!! Saturday, June 26th. I hope they will be streaming it live on the internet. A few years ago I sat at my computer ALL DAY watching. Simply amazing. They do usually do make some sort of show for TV - but only selective little bits.

The line-up so far this year - (Kush will be glad to note that Joe Bonamassa will be there)

(Line up is subject to change without notice.)

I *think* this is from the Budokan in Toyko, Japan - the guitar at the beginning could make you weep. The very ending is cut off but the look of delight on Eric's face about the talk box is there!

And from Hyde Park - (Chris Stainton is in this video)

Old Love. "Too much confusion, goin' round in my head-a!" For a guy who can't sing, I sure love his voice!!

Oh yes oh yes you got it:-)

That line-up is mouth-watering. If they stream it, pleeeease put up the link, Sturgess! It probably wouldn't be available in the UK but I'll keep the day (night as it will be for me) free just in case! Oh to be there in the presence of the lord.

Funny it's on 26th June, two years after we first discovered the two previous Crossroads here:

viewtopic.php?f=15&t=11476

Some of those links, on that link, no longer work, unfortunately, as I clicked on John McLaughlin, Kush, to see if my appreciation might have altered, as you have subverted my brain with all that jazz since that thread, but he's not there anymore.

In the Presence of the Lord is still there, from Crossroads 2007:

and there's Chris Stainton again. I am starting to see him everywhere now:-) Speaking of co-artists, Doyle Bramhall II and Katie Kissoon have appeared at the CGF, and both also appeared on Roger Waters' Tour Dark Side of the Moon tour (btw tics now onsale for Roger Waters The Wall Tour 2011). Katie Kassoon has also worked with Joe Cocker (see recent vid.s we have posted) and Van Morrison.

Check out this excellent clip of her singing Mother with Roger, Bramhall doing Gilmour's guitar bit:

I think that's Andy Fairweather Low there too (and PP Arnold)? All these great artists sure do stick together.

pondering hats last night, I looked up You Can Leave Your Hat on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDR2fXoHdQw
and finished up watching the entire Dortmund 1992 concert on youtube - excellent. E.g: When The Night Comes:

also, I always loved INXS' Never Tear Us Apart and didn't realise JC did a cover (this from 2002):

PS I notice his newest album, Hard Knocks, released Oct 2010, has mixed reviews. Anyone got that album?

[Cheshire gal]

Thank you once again Diane. Joe Cocker is a great entertainer. You have very good musical taste.
I always check out your tips.

[Diane]

thank you for that fine compliment, Cheshire Gal. Your opinion is a minority one I think;-)
