Barry French… Always enjoyed the Soulxpress gigs at the George Street Hall. John played an amazing set that night !!
Pete Prescott… When I think of Jezz, it’s of when we played gigs like this. I’ve got the full show on dvd. He was a huge part of the sound of the band. Take any one of us out and it was a different band. A lovely guy. Great player and songwriter. X
ticket: Simon Morrison
Tim Bruce… Was at this one. Loadsa crowd surfing… Brilliant night
Matt Thomas… Bloody hell didn’t realise they still had the same summer season from ten years earlier into the 90s
Colin Bell… I was there with Don Lusher for his gig, he was a very well respected musician who played trombone in all the top orchestras, many years with Ted Heath & at The Palladium as well as doing loads of sessions. He was a close friend of the family & introduced me to many people in the biz & was very helpful to me. I was very fond of him, he passed away in 2006 God bless him x
Andre Martin… How things change in 30 years
Jim Breeds… Mostly dire! Only The Dubliners and Desmond Decker would’ve tempted me.
Mark Fawaz… Don’t have sod all now pantomime if ur lucky
Andre Martin… How things change in 30 years
Leigh Mitchell… 1993…looks like a set from 1973
Tony Ham… I used to go to the wrestling on Wednesday nights.
Mark Randall… Wow – that’s one heck of variety of turns
Joe Knight… Great Times and music
Mick O’Dowd… Only one tribute act and they were pretty good! Never realised Desmond Dekker appeared as I would have gone to see him.
review by Colin Bell
Jane Hartley… I was there too. Didn’t he also have Brian Bennett’s son with him or did I dream that?
Colin Bell… Yes he did Jane, you weren’t dreaming
Stephen Singleton… Hank is one of the greatest musicians ever.
Mick O’Dowd… Was there for that one. Think I still got the programme.

Martin Richter… a master
David Wimble… Didn’t Dorris Collins have to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances? Lol
Lance Collins… David, think she saw the tickets sales
Mick O’Dowd… Was at the Zoot Money gig. Talking to him in the bar before show. Down to earth bloke.He had an ex-member of Bad Company in his band. I’ve been a life-long fan. The best album was Zoot! Live At Klooks Kleek. Another band that unfortunately couldn’t quite reproduce the excitement of their live performances. Still performing today
Alan Esdaile… Still going strong and crops up on the SMART facebook page from time to time.
