Stanley Super 800 Light Up the Savoy

Friday night at the Savoy, and the place was buzzing. Joe of the band Fred opened things up solo. It was just him, an acoustic, a red tee and a flat cap, perched in front of a wall of Orange amps that looked far too big for one man and a guitar. Lovely, stripped-back stuff. He played some of the great Fred hits of so long ago and I loved it!

Then Stanley Super 800 took over and the room tilted: bassist front and centre in a tangerine shirt and tie (a brave wardrobe choice under those lights, and it paid off), keys to the left, the red kit thumping away behind, and a guitarist working the right flank. The blue wash and that battered red drum kit made for a proper feast of colour, and from where I was standing, somewhere in that thicket of
silhouetted heads, it was hard to know whether to shoot or just listen. I did a bit of both. Good to see them again after so many years!
