Marvin Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) [url="http://www.stevelawson.net/"]Steve Lawson[/url] I was listening to local radio this morning and heard Steve Lawson playing a couple of songs. It's not usually what I'd like but I was incredibly impressed. The best thing I've heard on the radio on a Saturday in a very long while. That's all. Edited November 12, 2011 by Marvin Quote
Soliloquy Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 What station was that ? I usually only listen to Jazz FM, I have a particular hatred for radio DJ's talking about what they had for breakfast . Jazz FM DJ's tend to talk about the music and musicians. Quote
Marvin Posted November 12, 2011 Author Posted November 12, 2011 I was hoping not to say as it makes me feel quite sad It was BBC Radio Devon. I've actually started listening to the station quite a lot on a saturday morning as they like to promote a lot of local bands and musicians. Quote
molan Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Steve is a lovely guy as well - met him a couple of times and been to see him play a solo gig once. I'll admit that I find listening to an entire album of solo bass a bit tough but great to go and watch him live Good teacher too. Quote
krazy_olie Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Steve's a very nice guy, also met a few time and been to a couple of his gigs when he was London based. He used to be a regular on these boards, or at least the old bassworld. Quote
Steve Lawson Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Hi Marvin, thanks very much! So glad you enjoyed that. that was all kinds of fun to do - what a great show! Was a real treat to get to play with Joe on trumpet too - I met him about 5 minutes before we did that tune, he was playing banjo with the Wagon Tales, but is a trumpeter that plays with Andy Williamson who was on sax. We had two great gigs down in Cornwall and Devon, so hopefully we'll be back soon! cheers Steve www.stevelawson.net Quote
