After hearing about Herbie and Barry shuffling off this mortal coil I got into a conversation over the weekend about acts/singers that should be seen soon as they are getting on a bit and we may only have a few years left to be able to catch them (a)live.
A bit morbid I know, but there are so many acts I wish I had seen and now regret e.g. Frank Sinatra, Curtis Mayfield, Art Blakey etc etc
A few we came up with were:
The Dells - apparently they looked like they'd keel over at any minute when they stepped on stage at Trentham Gardens, but the minute Marvin Junior started singing, grown men in the audience were close to tears.
Tony Bennett - One of the few crooners still going.
Er that was it (we were in a bar in Amsterdam, so cogitation was a bit difficult)
Who do you think I should book that ticket for now?
