These vids are from a concert taking place in Feb. of '79 in Cologne, Germany at an annual festival they have there called Rockpalast. It was the second gig this ensemble played together after two weeks of rehearsals in London. The musicians are:
Red Young, keys;
Ricky Hirsch, guitars;
Lon Price, woodwinds;
Art Rodriguez, drums;
Bill Bodine, bass guitar and of course
Joan Armatrading playing and singing her brilliant music. I consider this to be one of the most special groups of musicians I have had the pleasure of working with. There have been countless times that I've been asked what it was like working with Joan Armatrading, and this should say it all.
