Leon Bridges
I must admit I didn't know anything about him until seeing him on Jools Holland earlier this year. Soon after found out he was touring over here and bought tickets for Shepherds Bush last night. I have to say I am very glad to have caught him and his band. I thought they were brilliant. Really entertaining, high quality songs etc. Definitely one to pay attention to if you like the early soul/gospel/doowop/rRnB end of things.

Your Favourite Live Performance - Just Let Your Emotions Go
You are right Alan, I was at the Ray Pollard one and it was truly fantastic! Another one for me was at Great Yarmouth with Chuck Jackson. He was fab. I remember Val and I being right at the front and when he threw his cummerbund (?) into the audience, after a tussle, I got it, and still have it. A friend of mine borrowed it for an 'Easter ball' she was doing, and I remember she washed it...oh no! I have photos somewhere of that night. I must hunt them out soon.

Southside Soul Club Mid-Late 80's
I remember the Alexandra and made many a trip down there. I remember the cloth black and white walls,( if I am right?). Do you know what Richard Saint is up to now? He went out with my sister for some time too. Brilliant bloke. Obviously a night/event that sticks in my mind is when the '01 for London' filming took place there. I am convinced that we still have it somewhere on video. I remember Val's interview on it most, as I always knocked about with her at the time. There is about a two second bit where Nick and I are dancing in the background. I will try to get Nick to hunt the video down. I remember always having a really good time there, and it was always crowded wasn't it? All The Best, Dawn
