Talking of people returning to their singing career, last night I
accomp[asnied a friend to a local theatre where Gino Washington and the Ram
Jam Band were playing. It was a trip down Nostalgia Street as both of us had
lived in London in the 60's and gone to the same clubs (although we never
met then). My friend was a great Animals fan so at that time I attended a
lot of Blues clubs, including the Ram Jam club where Gino Washington and his
gang were supporting the Animals.
As for last night, it was a good show but I discovered that my taste in
music has definitely changed! It's interesting how popular the Blues are
with men as I'd say two thirds of the audience were men.

Mark Lewisohn the author of the projected three-part biography of The
Beatles was the ten o'clock guest on Danny Baker's show on BBC 5Live this
morning. While writing, and straying somewhat off topic, one of the most
moving TV programmes I've seen in a while was on BBC4 recently. It
concerned the return to performing by brilliant singer and guitarist Nic
Jones. Both his children, a son and a daughter were involved as were many
of the giants of British folk. It has probably dropped off the iPlayer by
now, but they do repeat shows quite often on the channel so keep a look out.
