Just in from phenomenal concert by Bill Wyman and The Rhythm Kings at Cadogan Hall. Gaia and Hania came, too. We sat perhaps 10 rows from the front, Elaine with cotton wool stuffed in her ears, in a highly convivial with the likes of John Hurt (the seat behind), Jerry Hall and Ben Kingsley. A bit like a family reunion in terms of the band/audience interface. Albert Lee and Beverley Skeete did a ravishing ‘Crying in the Rain’ and the reworking of ‘Johnny B. Goode’ was outlandishly good. ‘Honky Tonk Woman’, too. Joy unconfined.
