Hosted by Brian McLachlan this evening, Brian sang two of his own compositions to start to evening off. “Taking a life” and “Gold-digger”
Then first up on stage was Charlie Glackin who sang a couple of really beautiful ballads which he had composed himself - “Let’s go dancing” and then “Different but the same”.
Next up was Derek Hart with a couple of songs “Get-up and go” and “Change your mind”
Jer McDade was next and he decided to sing an old Kinks song, which was not played much on the radio when it came out - because it was too long !! “Celluloid Heroes”, He then sang his own song “One day life got serious” - with some accompaniment on the chorus from audience members!
Gavin Watt was next on stage with an Alabama Free song “Too sick to pray” followed by a John Fogerty song “Have you ever seen the rain?”
Next up was the combo of Stuart, John and Jimmy on acoustic guitar, drums and Bass guitar. They performed a little reggae number “Easy skankin” which merged into their version of “Valerie”. They then performed their version of “What’s goin on?”
Next up was Elspeth Durkin with Bob Leslie on guitar, singing “Autumn Leaves” and “After the Goldrush” - her first songs since the New Year after getting over a ‘head cold’!
Jimmy McGovern was next on stage with a folk number “Jewel on her wings”.
Andy McGarvie was up next with a couple of covers including “All right now” (sorry Andy I didn't get a photo) and he was followed by Joe MacAtamany with a couple of traditional numbers including “Coorie doon”.
Bob Leslie then got up on stage and performed one of his own songs “The tune that was broken won’t mend” - written after watching a documentary on the life of Hank Williams. He then asked Elspeth up to do backing vocals for a motown number “You keep me hanging on”.
Stuart, John and Jimmy then got back up and did “I feel good” followed by the reggae number “Too much mix-up” for the finale.
There was a bit of a Jam session which followed, as the bar was open a little later than normal.
