A SET OF MY IMAGES AND A FEW WORDS FROM ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GIGS OVER THE YEARS. THIS IS A GOOD WAY FOR ME TO GO BACK OVER FOLDERS OF SHOTS FROM PAST SHOWS/SETS AND LOOK AGAIN AT THE IMAGES, AND A REAL BONUS IS SOMETIMES FINDING A COUPLE OF OVERLOOKED GEMS (A FEW OF WHICH I MAY MOVE TO MY INDIVIDUAL GALLERIES)
THIS SECTION WILL CHANGE SO WATCH THIS SPACE.



CURRENT GIG

THE BEN POOLE BAND - CAMBRIDGE ROCK FESTIVAL 2013

Between the years 2008 - 2013 I photographed and reviewed many of The Cambridge Rock Festivals for Get Ready To Rock and later on the sadly now defunct Classic Rock Society.
So many acts impressed me over the years and for this set I am going back to a corker from 2013, one of the UK’s hottest young blues talents Ben Poole and his top band which included at this performance a pre The Shires - Crissie Rhodes on backing vocals.
Below is my short review of their set from the CRS magazine.

BEN POOLE BAND
A highlight of previous festivals on stage two Ben was quite rightly upgraded to the main stage this year and with his stylishly turned out band including the backing singer ladies in smart black dresses he got the presentation down to a tee. One of the current crop of fabulous UK blues artists he dazzled the packed hall with both originals and his completely reworked/re-imagining of Hendrix classic 'Hey Joe'. A stylish and impressive set by this explosive blues guitarist/vocalist.
