‘Love Me Do’ I think it was and from there it didn’t take him long
Now he’s in a rock and roll outfit and everything’s all right
In the end though I found them rather dull live! I seem to recall that every song went off on an extended instrumental break in the middle and while that sort of thing is ok usually I just wanted to hear the tracks as I knew them especially the ones listed above!
It turns out I wasn’t alone in this as I got talking to rock journalist Phil Sutcliffe a few weeks later while I was waiting to go backstage after a Joan Armatrading gig and he said that he had been bored by them too!
Photographs taken by me at the gig and the setlist was something like:
Bad Company
Good Lovin’ Gone Bad
Burnin’ Sky
Gone, Gone, Gone
Shooting Star
Rhythm Machine
Ready for Love
Simple Man
Run With the Pack
She Brings Me Love
Evil Wind [with Drum Solo]
Honey Child
Rock Steady
Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy
Live for the Music
Movin’ On
Can’t Get Enough
Feel Like Makin’ Love
