Advantages: trip down memory lane Disadvantages: not for children, sexual references
storyline as well, but you get the definite feel that each two parter is detached from the other episodes.
SUMMARY OF THE BOXSET
++++++++++++++++++++++
If you liked Band of Gold, then it is worth buying. If you like a good drama then it is worth buying. I liken it to North and South,(USA Civil War) which had excellent series 1 and 2 and then totally lost it in series 3.
I would recommend it to watch. Kay Mellor is an excellent writer of drama and has won several awards.
It is good to watch all 3 series, but you are also glad that they stopped at that and did not go on to a fourth series as you wonder where they could have taken it!
It is good to watch an older programme and play spot the actress. Eileen from Corrie is a barmaid, Mubbs from Holby is a hospital doctor (no change there then).
It is good to see Samantha ...
Advantages: A great weekend, free events, attracts many big artists. Disadvantages: It may rain!
One of my best memories of summer 2001 was going to the Brecon JazzFestival whilst I was working at a summer camp nearby.
The Brecon Jazzfestival is renowned all over Europe and attracts big names such as Van Morrison and the Bootleg Beatles. There are loads of indoor concerts for which you need tickets, which can be expensive and sell out quickly. The town is transformed for the long weekend, all traffic is banned from the city centre and loads of marquees are put up.
As well as the paying events, there is loads going on for the rest of us who want to join in the fun (but are either skint or not willing to pay to listen to jazz).
In George Square there is a stage where bands play for free. The night I went there was a brass band (similar to Blues Brothers music). They were brilliant and really interesting to watch with all ...
Advantages: The absolute pinnacle of Barber Disadvantages: None
Chris Barber at Whitley Bay Playhouse: December 2002.
Lonnie Donegan dies: November 2002.
These two seemingly unconnected events made it timely to look back over my CD collection and revisit a real treasure in my collection. I have a confession to make in that I am reviewing here a CD rather than a concert but given the circumstances I believe it to be justified in this case.
CHRIS BARBER'S JAZZBAND. LIVE IN 1954. "Dixie Gold, The Best of Dixieland". CD Limelight 820878-2 £9.99
There are some concert performances that can claim to be historic - This is one of them. This recently reissued CD is a compilation of two live recordings - Jazz concerts played at the Royal Festival Hall, London on October 30th 1954 {A} and January 9th 1955 {B}. All right, so I wasn't there in the flesh at the time - I wasn't (quite!) old enough ...
