The dreams of (Lindsay's) child(ren)
Anyhow, back to my recent experience in having my faith in my fellow man rekindled. I also took my two boys to Weller in Cannock, what a gig, what a night, brilliant, they loved it. Especially as toward the end of the gig i took them nearer to the front and gradually edged our way as close as we could. My youngest got on my shoulders, just as Weller cranked into That's Entertainment and then he pointed at my boy with a big smile on his face, i swear there was peace and love in the air, man it brought a tear to my eye. Anyhow, a couple of days later i'm surfing Weller on You Tube, and to my amazment, there are videos posted showing this joyous moment (you'd only know it's my boy if you know where to look and if you know what the back of his head looks like !). My son is the one in the green top (you can see its green at the start) and he stays on my shoulders all the way through as we are bopping up and down... no wonder my legs were aching the next day !
Keep The Faith

The most underrated band ever? Little Barrie...
At my humble opinion, Little Barrie is really one of the most underrated band at the moment. Barrie Cadogan and band played with Paul Weller several times, and on 22 dreams for the last Weller's LP.
Barrie is a great and amazing guitarist, he has a very personal style, he's really the only one of his generation to play like this. Morrissey said he's the best guitar player of his generation. A few chords, always dynamic, I've never seen a singer/guitarist playing like that. Both hands are in a constant move, it's really impressive. His hands never stand still and it gives a true dynamic to any song. I've seen the band in a very horrible venue, no backstage, no scene, it was really a band's nightmare and Barrie remembers it (How could we forget he said when I asked him...) and they did the job. For me, it's been a unique occasion to see Barrie playing in front of me, really close. He's excellent, dynamic, groovy, elegant, inventive, personal, a complete dream... Watch him carefully while he's playing with Paul on the video...
Don't ask you why Paul Wants him. He has a touch, a complete personal way to drive a song. I DO want to support them... I think they haven't the success they do deserve. Each of its own, of course...
Barrie and band will allow me to interview them for the blog... Will publish it soon... Barrie will tell us his "Weller experience"! Stay Tuned...
Exclusive footage and new demo
Little Barrie on Myspace
| “Sounding not unlike Hendrix covering The Temptations, they succeed in capturing the essence of the Delta and bottling it in a contemporary garage brew.” -The Independent Review (UK) ''We Are Little Barrie is a stunning debut for sure, and the kind of record both old-school classic rock dads and groove-loving young kids should be clambering over each other to buy.'' - All Music Guide Review (UK) ''Fascinatingly oblique songs are plaed with confidence and laid-back precision, rather than smothered by a desperation to impress.'' - Mojo Review (UK) ''Little Barrie's appeal, then, lies in the directness of their music, the unfussy delivery and the economical way their lead man delivers his guitar contributions. These all make for a brightly uplifting record.''- Music OHM ''They are Little Barrie and you should be listening''. - Live Review ''Their authentic retro style with 21st Century knobs went down a storm, particularly new single, the funky Pay To Join, the Bo Diddley-esque Love You and Long Hair.'' - Mirror.co.uk |
