19 Apr 04 - 02:38 PM (#1165459) Subject: RE: Steve Last/Morris Men@ Bull 19/04 From: breezy I was impressed by Fancis Kempster's singing too, though I may prefer her singing from the Tradition rather than original material, but I've yet to decide, but then being older ones tastes are more of the mature so youthful dross was a phase long abandoned. Unless its really well researched and written. Will be enjoying the listening tonight. |

20 Apr 04 - 06:32 AM (#1165917) Subject: RE: Steve Last/Morris Men@ Bull 19/04 From: breezy Boy done good In the last 12 months Steve has developed a repertoire that is fresh and at the cutting edge of contemporary song writing and last night he barely scratched the surface. He is singing with clarity, and his guitar work is simple, yet technically challenging. 7 great songs from the influences of Steve Tilston, Tommy Sands, Eva Cassidy, Dave Webber and Tom Paxton. An all round entertaining and well thought out set, the time flew by. If you come to the Spotlight on Sunday 25th or the Duke of Marlborough next Tuesday 27th April you'll have another opportunity to hear Steve as he supports Les Sullivan and Dan MacKinnon respectively. Well played Steve. I liked Tina's song too. |

20 Apr 04 - 07:53 AM (#1165961) Subject: RE: Steve Last/Morris Men@ Bull 19/04 From: Singing Referee Wow! Thanks Breezy. Not just for the above, but for the help and encouragement you've given me during my 'come back'. Thanks Martin for asking me to do it last night. Thanks all who were there for being a great audience. |

20 Apr 04 - 09:54 AM (#1166085) Subject: RE: Steve Last/Morris Men@ Bull 19/04 From: The Unicorn Man Yeah well done Steve great night all round, thanks to Ian for the breath taking one man mummers play, I was still expecting all the others to jump out at any momment. And thanks to everone else who came. We saw some new faces 26 altogether. If we all go down to Breezys Spotlight Club on Sunday, that will make it very cosy. |
