Naomi Shelton And The Gospel Queens |
She took us to church, she shook us and she held us, we were taken care of, what a fantastic woman, what a great gospel revue! It was funky and it was hot, we really thought Charles Bradley would be the highlight of the day but Naomi stole the show! Highlights: Am I asking too much, Reach out and touch, A Change is Gonna Come -Hallgeir |
Agree with Hallgeir…. Best concert this Saturday. A highly energizing experience & CB guesting for “Am I asking too much” (and a Happy Birthday). Highlights: Am I asking too much & A Change is Gonna Come -Egil |
20:30 – Magic Mirrors:
John Murry |
«This will probably want to make you kill yourselves» John Murry is an angry motherfucker. His passive agression knows few boundaries. This night it was directed at The Ukulele Orchestra of Britain(?), and with good reason. The Ukulele people did it hard for Mr. Murry to get started on time and his set was cut short because of them. It is rude to do what they did on a tight festival schedule. That said…John Murry was great! …and very funny in all his built up and kept in agression. Highlights: Little Coloured Balloons, The Ballad of The Pyjama Kid and Southern Sky- Hallgeir |
He stressed quite a bit preparing for the concert… (ref the Ukulele band), but did a solid job when he got going. Very naked & dark stuff… Highlights: Southern Sky & Things We Lost In the Fire -Egil |
15:15 – Plenen:
Charles Bradley & His Extraordinaires |
This was my fourth Charles Bradley show, and it was nice to see that he has embraced the 70s style soul/funk. Love is still the main theme but now its delivered in a streetwise manner. Great start of the day. Highlight: Confusion – Hallgeir |
