indeed a sadly missed figure, i also subbed to Soul galore mag, and corresponded, "tape swapped" with Dave,for some time, and although i never actually met him in person, i always felt like we were good chums.,(R.I.P Dave)
just listened to this pod, and that Bluesology track,(among others) took my ear, Elton john on vocals, thought i,d check ebay and theres a couple, one at £175 and another starting at 65 pretty rare then, but the quality shines thru,
Great memories..i too was there this nite, pretty sure there was a total power failure also about 3am that lasted about 6/7 minutes but it seemed a lifetime( i was walking round the balcony at the time and trod on someones head lol,... We had paid a fiver for the advanced ticket only to find that later on theyed started letting people in on the door for a quid, but all in all it was a sure "Cracking Nite! "
