Re: Rock - what are you listening to?
Playing this tonight and I'm blown away by how good it is. And it must be reasonably rare as a google search only threw up one image of the cover. Seriously good stuff. Freddie White, recorded live in 1978.

Re: Rock - what are you listening to?
You're right Fran, this is seriously good. I'd forgotten I had it! And on vinyl too :) Nicky Ryan does a great job of capturing his voice live from a gigs round Ireland in 1978.....
Can't wait to catch up with the only other Lp I have of him - 'Do You Do'

I gave it another spin last night. Brilliant.
Unfortunately my vinyl copy is destroyed from wanton youthful lack of care.
So CD has to do.
Thanks for the reminder Conor.
