Hot on the heels of other major stars playing in the area, Dylan, Stones and Rod the Mod to name a few, Saturday was the turn of the Tall Boys to perform. Dave “Doc” Bawden and Mark Burke reformed for the afternoon and played to an invited audience of about 40 in Los Raimundos.
Some diehard fans were hoping for a few self-penned numbers but instead we were treated to a selection of favourites from the likes of Dylan, of course being Doc’s hero, W. Nelson, J. Cash, Eagles and J.J. Cale amongst others. It was well received with the woman folk taking to the dance floor and the men hiding behind dark or wine glasses. I was particularly pleased to have “Little old wine drinker me” dedicated to me!
Dave and Linda’s home made a fantastic setting in the mountains and I’m sure they were heard for miles around.
