Grahambythesea Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Bit hard on poor Jools! You have to admit though he has a fantastic band, they are all ace musicians. Seen them live loads of times and it’s always entertaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taunton-hobbit Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Ska & reggae both hopefully nudging back into mainstream (without the 'Britain First/Skinhead' overtones) - Watch this space .............. 😎 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen them live loads of times and it’s always entertaining. We’re going to see Jools and his band soon - saw them years ago but it was the presence of Imelda May as one of the guest vocalists ( along with the magnificent Ruby Turner) that swayed me this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 When I needed a bass signed for a Bass Bash raffle, Dave Swift got me backstage to do it. Ruby Turner was on the bill that day (along with The Selector) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezbass Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Just watching this and it’s marvellous! The variety of basses that just Dave Swift is playing is great to look at in addition to the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
