Dave Edmunds, Last Gig @ Rockers' Festival Lahti 2017

[@gedmason6387]

The welsh wizard. Dont get much better than Dave Edmunds.

[@TomHenry57]

Dave has been one of my idols since the early 70's and now he's in his early 70's and is still a BADASS!

[@chrisnicklason1489]

He is the UK'S Chuck Berry.

[@BazAitch]

Chris Nicklason I’d say even better! Great talent, great guy 😊

[@solsunson262]

It's Dave Edmunds. What's to dislike?

[@davidanderson8469]

LOL!!

[@gjovalinkukaj2811]

Grande Dave Edmunds per prima volta ho cominciato a sentire le sue performance nel 80' suonavano la chitarra elettrica a 16 anni,un artista molto sottovalutato dalla critica e media. Bravo Dave vita lunga ❤🎉❤...

[@williamwunner7421]

Dave is a true LEGEND and one of the kings of Rockabilly.

[@shea086]

Ive got major respect for MR. DAVE EDMUNDS. Love his music.

[@PaulBarry.]

A total legend. I hope he does a comeback gig because I’ll be first in the queue for a ticket. Thanks for posting this.

[@beckenhamrainbow5284]

Dave retired years ago.

[@Magnetron33]

Excellent closing footage for one of the greatest of all time. Thanks for all the great music, Dave

[@joannegreaves1310]

I was lucky enough to see this legend live in the 80's, one of the best nights ever!

[@badgernbuster]

I was first turned onto Dave in the 1980s by a local band who played several of his songs. I was very fortunate to see Dave play solo about 10 years ago in small venue. Sat feet away from him. Told many interesting stories.

[@thny936]

The best. So underrated. All of his versions of songs done by others too blow them away. Queens of hearts, girls talk, I knew the bride (a tie with Nick’s for me). And so on!

[@parachuteman4]

I love you dave edmunds. You are truly one of the greatest of all time. A real rock and roller

[@roberttreppleton8979]

Don’t forget Mickey Gee ! Another Welsh legend ! 2 of the finest guitarists from Wales !Rock on man!

[@jons7771]

All time heavy metal greats BUDGIE are from Wales. Good bless you all.

[@bensantiago6742]

Absolutely the keeper of the flame for Rockabilly, '50"s RnB, Country, et al! Without him guitarists from the mid-Seventies onward wouldn't have known what foundational rock playing sounded like! I will listen to Dave's music until I can't hear anymore! Godspeed Dave!

[@johncanavan599]

Still listen to him always he is the best

[@tattyshoesshigure5731]

One of the all time greats, love Dave’s playing & his sheer craftsmanship as a musician. Rockpile was one of the best live acts you’ll ever see... it’s a complete mystery to me why they weren’t bigger than Queen, ELO & all the rest of the nonsenses who ‘ship platinum’ on every release!

[@paulsavage5057]

It's hard to speculate about this, but, perhaps it was difficult for savy money-hungry, businessmen, to market 'Rockpile,' and, perhaps, their music (and Edmond's sophisticated guitar-playing with a raw edge) lacked the necessary disco flash and shallow sex appeal that other bands contained and tried to project in the late '70s.

[@672egalaxie6]

Dave is one of the best out there. Love this guy.

[@barneyrubble1438]

Keeping rock and roll alive ! Thanks Dave Edmonds . I hear you knocking ...

[@catman2007]

What a great set. Glad it's on video. Thank you.

[@campyhub]

It's always danger to declare a Greatest of All Time in rock and roll, but Dave may just well be it.

[@richardfugelsang4603]

Wish I’d been there, sound fantastic!! Love Dave Edmunds.

[@barrijonesabc123]

As a teenager i first saw Dave in a 3 tier joint near Cardiff Central station called "Whisky-a-go-go,around 1964 there was a band on each floor, I remember. I stood in front of the stage and watched him play "That'll be the day" Holly,I think he played a Gretch and the sound was awesome

[@randylee1777]

I saw him for the first time in Malmo a few weeks before that show. Something told me to travel from Baltimore maryland to malmo to see him. I'm glad I did.

[@mikevee55]

Sooo Good! Rock on Dave! I LOVE his guitar work, always have.

[@easyTaff]

Always plays the guitar as it should be. No effects needed with this man.

[@melodymaker396]

Nor with Chuck Berry.

[@tubetone74]

Yes, IF you can turn up a say good old tweed or Marshall type amp full tilt and control the overdrive w/ the guitar volume. Otherwise, there is an arguement for master volume amps and pedals.

[@bigdancd]

Be still foolish heart! I have loved Dave from back when he first started. Not ashamed to say that I have always had a crush on him. Like that would ever come to pass. lol... Seriously his renditions of Chuck Berry tunes and The Wanderer are classics! One of the best was I Hear Ya Knockin'.

[@KathleenMarone]

Had the pleasure of seeing Dave Edmunds years ago at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park NJ. Awesome show!!!!!!!

[@harmonichebe]

saw him with rockpile w//nick lowe at the hollywood palladium years back. methinks "get it" is one of the greatest albums ever!! Be Blessed

[@cesarnunez6061]

Simplemente el mejor Sir Dave Edmunds thanks for uploading the video

[@Boozehero]

I've seen him 5 times. Only one word... AMAZING!!

[@MrLongpaddock]

If this is DE’s retirement gig, what a way to finish up! Have been on the ride since 1970 when 50’s oriented music wasn’t fashionable. Dave (and his collaborators over the years) gave it at least 9 new lives but then, he is a cool cat. During a UK visit in 2008 I made the pilgrimage to Monmouth and Rockfield while staying at a B&B in nearby Symonds Yat. The owner used to have a beer with DE in the pub but that’s as close as I got…

[@canadianroot]

The closest I got besides seeing Rockpile twice was meeting Albert Lee side stage at a small outdoor venue in Markham ON (just north of Toronto), getting a selfie with him, and asking him how Dave was doing. His eyes lit up and he said he was doing great, and that they got together at Dave's 70th birthday.

[@anthonycavallo2328]

Love his style ! I enjoy doing his music as it suits my playing and vocal style with that great slap-back echo from the early rock years ! It's pure magic to me !

a couple of years ago Dave released a download only "it'll be me" his last song for the fans

So loved Subtle as a Flying Mallet and his version of London's a Lonely Town aka New York's a Lonely Town.

I hear Dave Edmunds knockin it outta the park with some Chuck Berry tunes

[@catmadwoman]

I've got nearly all his albums and Rockpile. I always wanted to marry him. Told everyone every time his music came on. Said as a joke but I meant it really.

[@canadianroot]

I'm not even gay, and I wanted to marry him, too! (Have owned much of his catalogue over the years, and seen him twice, including once with Rockpile).
