I saw Ritchie in 1973!! One of my first gigs - and Jimmy at knebworth about 3 years later!
Think Eddie still has it for the best I've seen of that generation!
Think that's a sideways leap away from topic like, but rugby, music, food & wine and my family are just about my life in a sentence!

yeh,sorry lads & lasses,my fault for going off topic - it was just prompted by 'Les West Guitar God ' and I couldn't resist !
must start a separate thread obviously

FWIW I saw Jimmy in Ipswich in 1972 with LZ but Jan Ackermann (Focus) around the same time was unreal - he must have had twenty fingers ? don't start me on Rory Gallagher .........................
