Dutch group Caro Emerald were great (biggest melodeon I've ever seen). Gabriel Bruce is probably going to become a British Leonard Cohen. There are some great musicians on there. Also some second rate loud pretenders like Johnny Marr who is just a talentless poser, (it's all been done before, John.... better) and Noah and the Whale who are not only scripturally wrong, but also repetitively boring. I guess dad has money or is a mason or something. But I rate Boonie Raitt. Fabulous performance. Blew all the others into the background. Fantastic for a 63 year old and quite incredible on bottleneck lead guitar. Respect Bonnie. I'm yours any time you want me. But then that is just my opinion. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b02wjxjx/Later..._with_Jools_Holland_Series_42_Episode_8/ Tone |

(I remember another Dutchwoman named Carolijn, who told me that her Italian acquaintances refused to use the common abbreviation "Caro", which in Italian has a masculine gender.) The free-reed instrument I saw in the clips is a button accordion, as typically used for modern Tango music in lieu of the original bandoneon. Refreshing music altogether, not a bit old-fashioned. |
