SARI SCHORR 29/9/2018


Sari Schorr

 

Playing to a small but select crowd on the last night of a small uk tour, Sari Schorr once again proves why she is one of the best female blues singers around at the moment.

With a new album just out, it was no surprise that over half the set was given over to new material from Never say never. 

Kicking off with The New Revolution this was a band that meant business from the start, with no rest going straight into Damn the reason.

Then two more new song King of Rock N Roll a song about Robert Johnson and Thank You. Back to the first album for demolition man and aint got no money, before a stunning versions of Bad Companys/Mott The Hoople Ready for love and I just want to make love to you.

Kiss me follows after which the band rock out on two new tracks. Maybe I m fooling and the Tina Turner sounding Valentina, with Sari in full Janis Joplin mode surely a song to stay in the set for a very long time.

 

Never say never is the title track of the new album a song written by the late Ian Mclagan. Its such a beautiful song  and one which will grow on you from first listen. Freedom ends the set, before an encore of Black Betty and Aunt Hazel finish a wonderful night of music.

If you miss this or any of the other shows on this tour, you miss a Singer and a band at the top of their game
