Animals & Friends

There is no Eric Burdon but John Steel who has been around from day one and Mickey Gallagher who took over from Alan Price in 1965 are, and Pete Barton does a great job with the vocals!
Expect all the hits, Boom Boom, Don't let me be misunderstood, We've gotta get out of this place, Baby let me take you home, Dimples, I'm cryin', Talkin' about you, Bring it on home to me, It's my life, and of course The house of the rising sun. No matter how far forward music goes, it's always great to look back, and this you can do at the Pavilion with the Animals and Friends

The Strawbs (full electric show)
Pavilion Hailsham
The Strawbs electric show at the Pavilion will feature Dave Cousins, Dave Lambert, Chas Cronk, John Hawken and Rod Coombes. This was the line-up that completed the band’s move from folk to pop to prog rock in 1974 with the album Hero and Heroine, which followed the success of the singles Lay Down and Part of the Union that had reached twelve and two in the charts in 1972-73.In their five-piece incarnation, two very different styles emerge. Cousins supplies the folk element, while Lambert provides the rock - the long hair, power chords, and the occasional Pete Townshend-style leap into the air. On the face it, the combination shouldn’t work - there is no obvious musical connection, for example, between Witchwood, Cousins’s tale of a bosky ramble in winter time, and the lovelorn, up tempo Heartbreaker, written by Lambert - but somehow it does. Their voices are very different, but they share a common passion for the music which is clear in complex pieces like Autumn, Ghosts and The River/Down By The Sea when lead vocals are alternated.

The Writing On The Wall
An anthology of dissent in words and music performed by Tony Benn and Roy Bailey.
The Writing On The Wall is a collaboration between two eminent and respected traditionalists , Tony Benn, now in his eighty fourth year, is Britain’s longest serving MP.
Famously outspoken and often controversial, he spent 50 years in parliament, many of those on the front benches.
Roy Bailey also has a career stretching over 50 years - as a folk singer - and in that time he has appeared all over the world.
He has been described as one of folk music’s finest carriers of the people’s message and interpreters of both traditional and contemporary song - and he has got an MBE to prove it (Just a minute though! - he returned it - back in 2006 - reason - "For our government's failure to call for an immediate ceasefire in the Lebanon and to our complicity with the USA's policy of supporting Israel's actions in Palestine.")
Voted as the “Best Live Act” at the 2003 BBC Folk Awards, Tony Benn and Roy Bailey present a performance of writings, speeches and songs taken from the words of Socialists, Radicals, Chartists, Suffragettes and Revolutionaries that illustrate nearly 1000 years of campaigning for justice, freedom and equality.
It makes compelling listening......
