My little brother (on the right) meets up with Imelda May at the Cornbury Festival a few days back,
for a change we were off at a food event, well Cardiff Bay is rather special, so missed what he keeps telling me is a fantastic festival- maybe next year we should take along the eggs!! or maybe have a day off....mmm.... difficult choice...Feeling a bit like I've missed the boat here with Hollies Dad seeing Imelda in concert in Birmingham just a couple of months back... better start seeing my friends again.
For those of you have not discovered this addictive blues/soul artist here's the openning paragraph on her website, very reminiciant of the 1991 film The Commitments a favourite film of ours
Jools Holland is excitable by nature, but when he spots a new artist who has what he considers “it,” his enthusiasm goes off the scale. To go by his reaction to Imelda May, she has “it” in spades. “I’ve got to have you on the show,” he told her after seeing her play live – and so, a couple of months ago, she duly found herself on “Later With Jools Holland,” wowing an audience who included Jeff Beck, Elbow and Roots Manuva. Beck, in fact, made a point of telling Holland that he was only there to see Imelda
hope you enjoy the link. Anyone seen sea sick sid ?
