Woodstock Calling - 16th Aug 2014 (45th Anniversary gig)

[Kingy]

is not just the start of the 2014-15 premiership season it's also the 45th anniversary of the woodstock festival

and there's more

I'm doing a gig with the band that night and it features Miller Anderson who played at that original Woodstock festival (he was in Keef Hartely Band, Mountain, Deep Purple, T.Rex, Savoy Brown, Chicken Shack etc etc) and Tony Reeves on bass (he was in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Greenslade, Curved Air, etc and produced John Martyn and Sandy Denny) and Jim Kimberley on drums (he was in Squeeze for a while)...and for those who don't know I used to work with a certain Mr Jansch (Neil Young, Jimmy Page, Johnny Marr's favourite guitar player)

here's a sample....on the link (though it's a different drummer)

It's at The Ivy House, 45 Stuart Road, Peckham, London SE15 - which is CAMRA's south east london pub of the year and is the first community owned pub in the UK

BTW - it's old men's music but don't let that put youb off - PLAY LOUD this will be a straight hard blues rock set with no violins or trumpets

and here's a clip

So cool to get a chance to see such a line up in our midst. Miller is a legend, Tony & Jim are hugely respected, and Kingy is one of the most respected guys on the circuit. Hugely recommended to the peeps of ED/Honor Oak/Nunhead.
