SHERBURN, BARTLEY & SCOTT’S LAST NIGHT’S FUN - Live From The Mac |
||||
I suppose it was only a matter of time before this exciting outfit recorded a live CD, after all playing live is what they are best at. It is how they served their apprenticeship - first as Chris Sherburn & Denny Bartley before the addition of Nick Scott - and how they learned their stagecraft. Anyone who has seen them live cannot fail to be amazed at the rapport they have with each other, Chris constantly giving Nick a bad time, showing surprise at a subtle change in Danny’s delivery of a song. This apparent spontaneity is what makes the audience sit up and take notice, although we all know it has to be worked at. LIVE FROM THE MAC was recorded straight from the mixing desk by Colin Boyd before being edited by Oliver Knight. Much of the chat has disappeared which is a plus point, as I always find it spoils a live CD when hearing the intro’s for the third time. However we still have a variety of Chris’s mid track noises - something which had my dogs barking the first time I played LIVE FROM THE MAC!!! The set is much as you would expect, a mixture of tried and tested tunes and songs, but the real surprise for me was the reworking of WHISKY IN THE JAR, almost unrecognisable but nevertheless outstanding. But then so is this CD. I am sure it will be a success and, as they are hardworking, you should get plenty of chance to see them and buy it. LIVE FROM THE MAC proves that LAST NIGHTS FUN can also be fun today and tomorrow. Dave Beeby
