Love the style, love the compositions, love the sound, and especially love the musicianship of all three. As a keyboard guy myself, I love this key guy's output. Very fitting live. Wasn't what i was expecting to be honest. Really enjoyed it. Lot more upbeat. Saw the DB and thought it was gonna be a bit classical sounding but it was almost Prog sounding. Liking that a lot. Her voice is very catchy. Nice choice 👍 Dave 3 Quote

SpondonBassed Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) Rob Strong Last century, way back into the eighties... We used to enjoy an evening or two at the Dublin Harcourt Hotel basement listening to the Rob Strong band, His stage presence is like his surname. Great voice and great lines. We had artists like him and Red Peters. Often we'd get members of Moving Hearts and Planxty jamming there. Edited March 16, 2020 by SpondonBassed 2 Quote

el borracho Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Surprisingly I can't see that anyone has mentioned Dusty Hill. I then just randomly picked this as a live video & realised I can see myself on it - I'm in the crowd!! 1 Quote

I find I can sing and play quite complicated pieces as long as it follows the beat. Once you get half notes and anything offbeat, I get out of my depth. Quote
