Sandy’s Open Mic at the Clutha Vaults, Glasgow
After another lovely spring, blue-sky day, musicians headed for the Clutha Vaults for Sandy's Open Mic.
Sandy started with ‘Must be loved’ followed by ‘Dancing for the Beast’.
First up was Jim with ‘I shall be release’ and then the Leonard Cohen song ‘Manhattan’.
Elspeth Durkin was next up singing ‘Autumn Leaves’ and then ‘After the Goldrush’.
Sandy then sang ‘I’m looking through you’ He then mentioned that he has a new band called Lucky Jim and sang one of the new songs he wrote with them called ‘Ode to blue’. Bob Leslie then sang ‘It’ll last another day’ followed by ‘Her eyes’.
New face Heather then asked Bob if he could play along with ‘Both sides the Tweed’ and then she played and sang ‘Caledonia’.
Duncan then played ‘Hum Drum Days ‘ followed by his own song about St. Andrew’s day - after an inordinate amount of tuning his own guitar!.
Sandy then asked Big Ronnie Simpson to come up and sing ‘The Green fields of France’.
Kate McGee was in the audience and she got up to sing ‘Valerie’ followed by ‘Ain’t no sunshine’. Kate is hosting a new Monday evening Open Mic in the Clutha as from the 30th March.
Sandy then asked Catriona up to sing ‘Can’t explain’ and then she tried ‘Louis louis’.
The incomparable Willie ‘Jukebox’ Mathews was then asked up to the stage - He performed ‘The lady is a tramp’ followed by ‘Flip, flop & fly’ and then ‘How blue can you get’.
George then got up and sang ‘Back to black’ and then ‘Wheels on fire’. Final act of the evening was Bob, Willie and Kate performing ‘Love the one you’re with’.
A very short jam session followed before everyone was being asked to leave the pub at midnight.
