In December Jethro Tull are playing at Coventry Cathedral and in June Richard Thompson who founded Fairport Convention is doing a solo concert there too. If the lockdown is over ? Folk / Rock music should sound good in the cathedral. So been listening to both acts on YouTube.

I've been reading about Sandy Denny. What a waste of talent as she was destructive with drink etc. Used to throw herself down stairs for a reaction ! Died young, but what an amazing voice she had. She was in Fairport Convention for awhile.I’m sure they will sound great in cathedral. Really like some of Richard Thompson’s stuff both when in fairport convention and with Linda.

Who Knows Where The Time Goes. Heard it yesterday for the first time, a song by Sandy Denny. What a voice and song.She had an amazing voice. I saw her perform live a few times.
Fairport Convention used to appear at this club in Erdington, Birmingman called 'Mothers'.
Fairport started out as a rock group with a female singer called Judy Dyble, who was really good.
After she quit the band, they hired Sandy Denny as a replacement.
After a while the band transitioned from rock to folk rock and then pure folk and at that point I lost interest in them.
Seen Sabbath many times but not in Leamington. As for Edgar Broughton Band saw them in the 70's and Out Demons Out got the place rocking !Black Sabbath on the turntable now. Was anyone else at their concert in Leamington at the Jephson Garden Pavillion, around 1970?
My memory is fading but think they were on with the Edgar Broughton Band.
Yep, local lads from Warwick.Seen Sabbath many times but not in Leamington. As for Edgar Broughton Band saw them in the 70's and Out Demons Out got the place rocking !
Pretty sure the EB band played the British Legion club at Berkswell/Balsall commonSeen Sabbath many times but not in Leamington. As for Edgar Broughton Band saw them in the 70's and Out Demons Out got the place rocking !
They would play small venues so quite possible they played there. I saw T.Rex play at the Lanchester College in the 70's before it became Coventry University. Marc Bolan walked down the stairs by the bar after his gig, he wasn't that famous then so nobody bothered him. I recall it wasn't much of a performance, but liked them later on.Pretty sure the EB band played the British Legion club at Berkswell/Balsall common
when my dad was secretary.
They lost me when they changed their style and name from Tyrannosaurus Rex to T Rex. Didn't like te Glam Rock at all.They would play small venues so quite possible they played there.

Glam Rock bands liked to knock out singles. But the likes of Sweet and Slade when in concert could be more hard rock.They lost me when they changed their style and name from Tyrannosaurus Rex to T Rex. Didn't like te Glam Rock at all.

Slade especially could do heavy metal.
Slade must one of, if not the, most underrated bands the country has produced.Slade especially could do heavy metal.
The race for space - public service broadcasting
it’s a really nicely arranged album
Check out my previous link to a song by the 'N Betweens. Two of their line-up (Noddy Holder and Dave Hill) ended up in Slade.Slade must one of, if not the, most underrated bands the country has produced.
Funnily enough it arrived today. Yes it’s a very good track. I saw haiku salut a couple of years ago in Leamington supporting the wedding present. They were really good.Seen them live a few times great band.
Saw them in Wales not long after they released every valley was very emotional when they played they gave me a lamp.
Worth checking every valley out if you haven't already.
Yeaaah. Slade Alive. One of the best live albums ever made.
