When I was promoting, bands used to do 2x45 + encores (if any). Big names (think Ben E King, Jimmy Ruffin, Desmond Dekker) used to do a contracted 60min, up to them if they went on past this - I think Jimmy Ruffin finished at about 2hrs!). 😎

I may be wrong (not unusual) but this looks very much like the brother of another thread (which got locked) a week or two ago ...................? 😎

I played at The Star & Garter in Windsor (the original Ricky Tick) a looong time ago & we had a guest group whose name I forget, but the Bassist was about 13 & the Ric was almost bigger than him (& yes, they were bluddy brilliant) .............. 😎

Nice, tidy setup - have a gold star ! 😎

I've given it several looks & am pretty sure the opening is much like 'if the song of the songbird' - which was originally Manfred Mann 'Come Tomorrow' - but I can't find anything reggae that matches ................ 😎

It's off the Natty Rebel album, but you know that (!) - I've never heard it before. 😎

You have to have the right (v expensive) lead to your amp ................. 😎

😎

Check Crack Converters and Evil Bay, I'd guess they'll be sold on ...............good luck. 😎

.............. welcome to my world .................. 😎

Sounds pretty average ............... 😎

Aah, not quite that simple - I lived in a basement flat in a village a bit outside Taunton for a while (hence 'hobbit'), & I now live on the coast in West Somerset, but kept the name. I don't know any of the pubs in Taunton - sorry ! 😎

😎

Nah, go to Ronnie Scotts - https://www.ronniescotts.co.uk/#home-content 😎

I can't see the problem, look it up on t'internet, work out an average price & then consider if this is the right site to use - I've got stuff (no plugs) that I won't put on here............ edit - I'm reminded of a local forum to me that has turned into a massive winge-fest over banning dogs from a chunk of our beach where kids play, it's only for the summer & there's plenty of 'other' beach for dogs to use, but peeple can't (or won't) stop being outraged ............ 😎

Part of the chorus was 'dance, dance, come in a dance' as I recall - long time ago, but Natty Dread Come in a Dance is almost exactly the same riddim/tune. 😎

This is a take from 'come a the dance' , which I thought was Bunny Wailer or Freddie McGregor, but apparently not - any ideas ? 😎

As Bunny Wailer is flavour of the day, thought I'd repost this - 😎

You could, but the link don't work ... 😎

And in the UK you have to go on a safety course to hang flowers on lamposts ... 😎
