It'll be a rainy night in Georgia before I go.0

Can't believe you don't know of him.
He wrote amongst other songs Polk Salad Annie and as mentioned above Rainy night in Georgia.
Great performer live.0 -
Well I know those songs, love Elvis' version of the former. But he's hardly a household name is he? Why try to be clever?iainment said:Can't believe you don't know of him.

How is this being clever? Just wanted to know if anyone here's going to see him. He tours regularly here, he has a good following and I know there are some on here who like his type of music.
Do we only have to mention artists you've heard of?0 -
Of course not, I like his type of music now I know who you are talking about. A simple link would have saved all the needless posts.iainment said:How is this being clever?

Enjoy TJW - if he was playing anywhere close to me I would go and see him. Love the whole Country Soul scene.iainment said:Going to see him at the Union Chapel on the 4th of July. Can't wait as he's brilliant live.

On a side note I went to see the fabulous Swedish/Afro/Psychadelic ensemble Goat last night - brilliant live band although they looked a little knackered last night, which isnt suprising given how much energy they put into their shows. Next up Loop...0 -
It's also needless for you to be such a massive helmet chirpy but you keep on doing so.Riviera said:

Like Oakster, would love to see him live. He was a favourite of mine years ago. I had fallen for Creedence Clearwater Revival and their "swamp rock" imagery of the Deep South. I was bewildered to discover that they were from California, but never mind, you mugs, here's the real thing, Tony-Joe White.
I hadn't heard of him for ages, but he popped up during the last series of Later, and it crackled with atmosphere. Enjoy!0 -

Old Chirps/Riviera needs to change his user name again, how about 'The Bell' ;o)buckshee said:

I get the same reaction when I mention I'm a huge fan of Todd Rundgren. Mostly I get, 'Who?' Occasionally I get, 'Oh, I love Todd Rundgren too. He's immensely loud.' Then I know exactly where this is going. 'Intensity In 10 Cities, that was a great album.' 'Er no, mate. THAT'S TED F*CKING NUGENT. Bit bloody different. Oh, forget it. What? No, you f*ck off!'2

Will have to give my two Country got Soul compilations a spin (or digital equiv) today.0

Great albums, Henry. Has the first one got I Hate Hate by Razzy on it?0

I have this really clever system on my computer called Google - it works everso well whenever I am unsure about a reference on a forum. You just type in the name and lo and behold it almost instantly comes up with information about the person, place etc. It's marvellous.Riviera said:

You should see if you can get hold of it Chirps... ;-)0 -
I love "Polk Salad Annie". One of the great Southern singer / songwriters. See also Dan Penn and Spooner Oldham.0

I hesitate to say we just got tickets to see Blithe Spirit with Angela Lansbury - my partner being a massive fan of Murder She Wrote. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to that. Although the kudos I have for getting the tickets is huge.1

What do you mean, we don't have the same impartiality requirements as the BBC?0 -
Really fun piece by Noël Coward. I saw it back in the '80s with Joanna Lumley in it.iainment said:I hesitate to say we just got tickets to see Blithe Spirit with Angela Lansbury - my partner being a massive fan of Murder She Wrote.
