Maddie Prior is a very nice lady. We met her once after a gig. Steeleye span got me out of trouble. When I used to play my music loud the neighbors got a petition against me but when I played Steeleye span records the local children danced around the gardens which saved my bacon.

Lucky enough to have seen Status Quo at Wembley, with INXS and The Alarm, supporting Queen, but have also been to some great Steeleye Span concerts. They took time after each concert to chat with fans, so I took the chance to meet Maddy Prior as well, and we had a quick chat. My girlfriend was already a massive fan, but she was too shy go and say hello, so I dragged her over and, after some initial trepidation, she managed to say how much she enjoyed the show. It was lovely to have met Maddy Prior and, as we shook hands, I promised to go along to one of their future concerts, which turned out to be publicised as their last show, in Letchworth. Great folk music from a really tight band, who had a close bond with their fans, but they were so much more than, 'All Around My Hat'. As for Status Quo, they rocked your socks off, and I love this cover!

@@lennyhendricks4628 that happened even to Lennon singing with the band in the last times they were live. Maybe not enough rehearsals, since no live shows or tours were in the calendar, which Paul missed a lot the most. But oddly once in his solo career, John went into appearances and guest at others' shows and he did perform uncannily focused even with material not his he barely practiced together with them. All great artists go through such periods off focus performing whther vocalists or instrumentalists or both

It's covers like this I love Quo, if I listen to their stuff I just get sick! The doctors don't know why but every time I throw up and get diarrhoea. I bought an album years ago for a friend to play as I had no record player. He played it and by the third track I was throwing up and the fourth I was having diarrhoea. I cannot listen to Status Quo original songs without being violently ill. If they come on the radio in the car I have to change the station. On onee occasion I was in a car with an arseho** he would not change the station. He was wearing my lunch and the seat was sporting yesterday's dinner. He demanded that I pay for the cleaning but I told him numerous times to change the channel. I never paid for the cleaning. ❤
