The Roundhouse:
Never spent so much time there. We caught Jan Dukes de Grey, Gin
House, Hawkwind, The Purple Gang, Daddy
Longlegs (whose single "Getting High Again" probably became an
anthem for some of the audience) on May 24, 1970.
These days, the Roundhouse returns to my memory every time I take out my treasured vinyl copy of Man's "All's Well That Ends Well", recorded live at the Roundhouse in December '76. A brilliant live album - and the cover is filled with mementos of the Roundhouse. The Man crew are some of my all time favourites - the twin Gibson SG work of Micky Jones and Deke Leonard was outstanding - and if you don't think they knew how to play the blues, check out the number one track: "Let The Good Times Roll"! I'm glad to see that they still appear now and then at London venues in some shape or other. I'm coming over!
