I've been to the Night Before Larry Got Stretched session many times and it is always excellent. It's great to hear young singers learning the songs and taking a fresh approach. Tradition shouldn't mean static and the NDLGS collective have brought a great new dynamic to the singers' club scene here in Dublin. If you doubt it get a copy of Lynched CD; Cold Old Fire. It blew me away from the first listen. Fresh, raw, vivid, dynamic and a great listen. Fergus Russell |
