Yes Go. I saw them a few years ago for the first time in 30 years and they were great. They played a mixture of very early material and stuff from S F Sorrow. Phil May was still awesome as a front man. I have tickets to see them play S F Sorrow in Salford in February and can't wait. Peter

Yes! Seen them 3 times in London in the last year and all 3 shows excellent. They do stuff from throughout their career including SF Sorrow, and an acoustic blues segment, just Phil May & Dick Taylor, that's worth the price of admission on its own. See video below and also here:

Of course go. They are legends and one of the last authentic r'n'b bands still around. I hope they are playing in a small club.

of course go - an awesome live band.

Seen them 4-5 times, over the last couple of years - always excellent.

I hope to see them again, on 30th Jan, at the 100 Club.

Hey Adrian, Green Lady and other Prettys fans. Just found out they've cancelled the SF Sorrow tour. Anybody know why?

Seing the video the early Jagger came into my mind. He was always amazing with some maracas or a tambourine in his hand!
