I must apologise for arriving a bit late with tonight’s guest, but the A55 was at a standstill for miles. That’s what Terry told me to say; in reality it takes him a long time to put on the slap over the wrinkles these days.
Yes it was Terry Hiscock back again by overwhelming demand.

Lots of chums turned up, not least Brian and Sue from Durham. We didn’t know they were coming down for the night so it was a delight to see their liitle smiley faces.

Terry? Does what it says on the tin. Loads of beautifully crafted songs, perfectly delivered by an old pro.


Those who saw the recent posts from Brian Race from Hunter Muskett (Terry’s band)’s gig in Darlington, will have seen El Tel with a lot of facial hair. He’d shaved it all off for last night, presumably to stop me taking the piss.
Not easy for one bloke with a guitar to keep everyone spellbound for the night, but he always manages it; bit of gob iron, bit on the electric Gibson with sliiiide and a few subtle effects from his electric box of tricks. Even got everyone singing along to Buddy Holly’s “Everyday” (don’t remember it personally – before my time).



Only one disappointment – where was “Where are you now, Sweet Marie”. Maybe next time. I’m sure there will be a next time.
