Leo Kottke was a support act at the Patti c. 1972...
Fine guitarist though.

This is going to turn into a big debate about who’s “big name” and who isn’t. Normal people who like music with no pretensions on the one side, serious “musos” who think they’re awesome because they listen to 1930s Rockabilly and once played rhythm in a covers band in the Cardiff Arms circa 1989 on the other. | |

I was told that in the mid 60's Carew Castle used to have a music festival. By all accounts a group played and everyone really like them got talking to them and wished them well. A year or two later they became Pink Floyd.
I like this story as I think they were called Sigma 6 back then and an old boy from Carew still calls them that | | | |

Rockabilly didn't exist in the 1930s. Stick to Queen, kiddo.  | | | |

Squeeze are in Pontardawe tonight. Right now in fact. We had tickets but couldn’t go. One of my all time favourite bands and always good value live. Great songs, good fun. [Post edited 30 Sep 2017 21:13]
