Hello there friends --out in internet land..

fish house with propane heat and lights...all the comforts of Florida..
without the hurricanes...ha ha.

"Marvin The Magnificent" Hemsby Review |
|
Next came one of the true originators, Marvin
Rainwater, who was backed up by the (now) famous Hemsby House
Band lead by Wayne Hopkins and including Antonio Coni on brilliant
lead guitar and Clive Osbourne on sax. Again, this was a no frills,
straight in your face rock 'n' roll set as Marvin opened up with
'Love Me Baby' quickly followed by his No. 1 UK hit 'Whole Lotta
Woman' and 'I Dig You Baby. Pausing
for breath, Marvin advised us that the lead guitarist in his band
The Rockin' Tomahawks back in the fifties had been none other than
Roy 'Please Mr. Mayor' Clark who went onto become a country music
superstar and showman of the highest order.
Rainwater certainly
knew what the crowd wanted to hear as he served up 'Mr. Blues', 'Baby
Please Don't Go' and his own paean to that infamous ale from Newcastle
with 'Newkie Brown'. He
and the band were cooking rockin' hot with 'Rovin' Gambler', 'Wild
Man' and a great 'Boo Hoo'. One
of his newer numbers is 'Rockabilly Music Coming Down' and this
demonstrated that this guy, who is now in his eighties, has no lessening
in his love for rockin' music. Next came 'Rock Me' which
was oh so familiar and this became apparent as he repeated the number,
with amended lyrics' as 'Dance Me Daddy'. Seemingly back in the sensitive
fifties, the lyrics had been deemed to be too suggestive and therefore
had to be 'cleaned up'. This
exciting and enjoyable set came to a conclusion with 'Rockin' Down
The Walls' and the classic 'Hot And Cold'. File under Marvin The Magnificent.
