Kossoff

KOSSOFF/THE BAND PLAYS ON
Musician Pub: 30th August 2023

Welcome return to the The Musician Pub last night for the awesome KOSSOFF-THE BAND PLAYS ON. Dont be fooled into thinking of this band as "another tribute band"... this is a band of gifted musicians... Terry Slesser must be one of the best rock vocalists in the business.... John Buckton is a magnificent guitarist, and was first choice to replace Koss in the event of Free reforming. Bassist Rhino Edwards (Status Quo) and drummer Clive Edwards (UFO/Pat Travers) form an absolutely awesome rhythm section driving things along...

The repertoire is the music of the late great Paul Kossoff, and they opened with a powerful version of "The Stealer.".. and closed out with "Wishing Well", "Alright now" and the encore, almost inevitably, was "The Hunter". With a great many classic Free and Back Street Crawler tracks coming in between.

The band never fails... you know you will always get a full on performance, great music played brilliantly with energy and panache. The band build a great rapport with the audience and create a wonderful atmosphere.
Last nights show was everything you would expect... if you have seen the band before, you know exactly how good this was... if you haven't seen them... why not?? go see them...
Keep music live... keep music real... support your local venue
