And today’s list
28) Jeff Healey – On of the best blues musicians for me his guitar playing lets you feel the emotion and his voice is the epitome of what a blues singer should sound like. jeff is blind but it did not hinder him at all from giving an awesome, spellbinding performance.
29)Roger Waters – I saw his theatrical performance of the wall. What a show, as much about the performance as it was about the music. Competently performed and enjoyable.
30) Procul Harum – One of the bands most popular albums was recorded live with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra. This was in the early seventies and was a favorite album of mine. I did not see them live until the mid nineties in Toronto and I was not dissapointed at all. A fabulous show with their biggest hit ( A Whiter Shade of Pale) still resonated – timeless.
