 Cracky A pub gig. 31st December 2016. The Oxford, Totterdown. Good pub, good beer, loud but friendly crowd – it was New Years Eve - and Yes Man Jellyfish at their rocking best. Rick driving the band through their best-known numbers, in front of a friendly, enthusiastic crowd. Solidly underpinned by Jim’s bass and Louise’s keyboards, stunning guitar breaks from Tim and Abby’s soaring vocals. ‘True’ was brilliantly worked for the cheering crowd – we love that song! The whole pub joining in ‘Sleep’ before the final countdown towards 2017. Wonderful! Yes Man Jellyfish Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky As Joan Baez left the stage, I fell asleep. This was Sunday night at the Isle of Wight Festival, in August 1970, and I was lying in the field about 120m from the stage. Somewhere in the distance I could hear Leonard Cohen singing ‘So Long Marianne’ and thinking, “hey, it’s just like the record”. I lay on the grass and let the rest of his set wash over me. The O2 arena in Stratford is vast, but Leonard turned it into a lounge bar. He managed the acoustics and the crowd; we were in awe. Songs from our youth, songs that spoke to and for us, songs half-remembered, songs of love and hate, the songs of Leonard Cohen. “First we will take Manhattan” we sang, “then we will take Berlin”, Hallelujah, Suzanne.

 Cracky Crosby, Stills and Nash. I have three possible contenders for the favourite. The gig in September 1974 with The Band and Joni Mitchell, but I remember that mostly for the crush afterwards at Wembley Park station. On 11th July 1983, it was a nightmare getting to the Wembley Arena through the traffic and the crowds; pre-gig expectation, into our seats and then WOW…. “If your down and confused” started Stephen, joined by David and Graham, exquisite harmonies and a superb set that could have put this gig into Eighth place. But 30 years later they came to Bristol. A surprise! Relaxed at the end of their successful World Tour, they were magnificent; warm, endearing, loving it; strong vocals, great harmonies, in-jokes, stories, and played forever; the old men could still rock!!. We loved it…genuine encores! Crosby, Stills & Nash Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky I had missed Springsteen in ’75. But, hey, he’s playing Wembley in July! “But we’re already going to Wembley in July”. “Yes, I know and now we’re going to see Bruce….” On the Born In The USA tour, he played for over 3 hours, singing 30 songs, we were all drained; an incredible show which included everything he had done to that point, with his absorbing stories and the great E-Street Band. Max Weinberg is still one of the best drummers I’ve seen. Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky I had left my rocker days behind many years ago and my London mod mates had introduced me to ska as it morphed into reggae. A brilliant live album introduced us to Bob Marley. I had to see this guy. Wow! Blown away at the gig (in more ways than one!) and still in awe, saw him again a year or so later. But the first time, he was at his best, wonderful. Supported by the I-Threes, with Chinna Smith’s guitar licks cutting through the reggae beat, the sound, the vibe and the music was awesome. (Can’t find my ticket, but got the programme) Bob Marley & The Wailers Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky This one was completely unexpected….it’s great when this happens! I was well into Indian music and of course knew John McLaughlin, I had seen Mahavishnu Orchestra twice but had not heard of Remember Shakti. Well, they aren’t really a band, more a bunch of musicians who get together every few years or so. Nonetheless, I wanted to see John and so booked seats almost as soon as the tour was announced. The gig was absolutely incredible. The musicianship was outstanding, the wonderful interplay between Zakir Hussain (tabla), John McLaughlin (guitar), V Selvaganesh (kanjira, ghatam, mridangam), U. Shrinivas (mandolin) and Shankar Mahadevan (vocals) was pure genius. Wonderful improvisations and inspirations, totally absorbing and breath-taking. I was completely blown away.

 Cracky Great gig Number 4 is Live Aid, Wembley Stadium, 13 July 1985 I queued for about 4-5 hours at the HMV shop, then in Merchant Street, Bristol. But had arrived early and got reasonable seats opposite the Royal Box. Our second trip to Wembley Stadium in eight days. A great, great sunny day with so many amazing performances that the DVD does not do justice. Left the Stadium with the rest of the crowd, singing, “Feed the World”, drove home like an idiot to catch the remainder of the day from the US and see Bob, Keith and Ron screw up. An unforgettable experience. Live Aid Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky I did not know what to expect. The underground music press had been raving about Van Morrison for years. I knew him from Them of course, but he had dropped off my radar until I saw he was playing the Rainbow. Got tickets. A friend of mine bought me ‘St Dominic’s Preview’ so as I would have some idea of his more recent work. Goodness me! Van was on fire. He was playing the UK after a hiatus in the US, now he was back and how! This was a superb show since released as part of ‘Its Too Late To Stop Now’ album. Nobody was doing anything like this in ’73. We clapped, stamped, cheered and yelled. Eventually, he bought on his baby daughter and pleaded that he had no more to give…. Van Morrison Mar 08, 2024
 Cracky The line up at ‘The Picnic’ included Graham Parker and the Rumour, Joan Armatrading and Eric Clapton; I had seen them all before (and since) but today they were at their best. Then Bob with the amazing band. He played acoustic, and electric tunes effortlessly. Horns, keys, pedal steel and mandolin rocked. Even a flute on ‘Tambourine Man’. They were so well rehearsed which for Bob is almost unheard of. Then the moment: the band began the long slow intro to Blowing in The Wind, the sun was going down and a hot air balloon drifted by the site….is that true? Did it happen? Doesn’t matter really, it remains one of the great memories from that day. Bob Dylan / Eric Clapton / Joan Armatrading / LAKE / Graham Parker & The Rumour / Merger Mar 08, 2024
