June 28th - Day 71

I ended up at The East Dulwich Tavern this evening and watched Danny belt out some vintage rock'n'roll numbers (like sixty-six and three) accompanied by fine finger-picking guitarist Paul (was that his name?). I had a chat with Danny afterwards. He also performs folk music, but his main passion is reserved for the rock'n'roll era and the less documented seventies revival which people tend only to remember for spawning Shakin' Stevens and Matchbox and not a myriad of lesser known, but equally talented artists. He told me what he enjoyed most about playing live was being able to do so with an accomplished rock'n'roll musician such as Paul alongside him.
